Rolling Disc on Inclined Plane.
This unit enables basic experiments to be performed on dynamics and is ideal for laboratory
experiments.
A metal carrier with a three point support is used as an inclined plane for the experiment; the
different rotating masses are rolled down this plane. The angle of inclination is adjusted using
an adjustment bolt and is indicated by the builtâ€in inclinometer. The inclinometer uses the
plumb line principle. A 1000mm ruler is integrated directly into the inclined plane for measuring
the travel. The steel rotating masses each have selfâ€centering conical pins. Using a separate
pendulum block the moment of inertia of the rotating masses can be determined by swinging.
It is used for:
Demonstration of the law of gravity on an inclined plane
Influence of the mass of a body on its acceleration
Determination of the moment of inertia on rotating masses by performing a rolling test
Determination of the moment of inertia by performing a pendulum test
Influence of the moment of inertia of a rotating mass on its angular acceleration
