FREE FALL APPARATUS WITH TIMING-PRO LIGHT GATES & SOLENOID SK196

Free fall apparatus is necessary for the quantitative analysis of free falling objects and measurement of value of ā€˜gā€™, acceleration due to gravity.

Experiments:

Exp-1 To determine the value of “g” by dropping metal ball/dowel using solenoid through a pair of light gates.

Key Features:

  • Unique semi-wireless solution to perform ‘g’ by free fall experiment.
  • Primary and Secondary light gates communicate with laptopor mobile phone on wireless bluetooth link.
  • Primary light gate has inbuilt Digital Timer with 100 microsecond resolution.
  • A special solenoid module is triggered from Primary light gate to release ball.
  • Built-in rechargeable cells.
  • Communication between Primary Secondary light gates and Solenoid is wired.
  • Graphical display of blocked pluses can be observed on PC software android app and iOS app.
  • Easy to set up and accurate result.
  • Primary and Secondary light gates can be used with air track and dynamic trolleys, to study linear motion on inclined plane and collision experiments.
  • Solenoid is only powered when ball or dowel is in position, so conserving battery power.
  • Data can be collected on PC, tablets or smartphones.

Key Topics:

  • Free fall.
  • Acceleration due to gravity.
  • Line of sight & IR.
  • light gate.
  • Bluetooth.
  • Solenoid.
