Key Features
Elastic rings that deform visibly during rotation
Fits an electrical rotating platform or suitable rotating machine
Shows how speed and distance from the axis affect the outward effect
Rings return towards their original shape when the speed is reduced
About This Product
Fixed on a rotating platform and run from low to higher speed, the rings flatten more as rotation increases, which gives a clear picture of circular motion, centripetal and centrifugal force and the effect of angular velocity. The apparatus must be firmly fixed before starting, and handled only after rotation has stopped completely.
