Lascells G By Freefall Apparatus

Product Description

The g by Free Fall unit is a practical tool for measuring acceleration due to gravity, ideal for hands-on learning in the classroom. It allows students to explore core physics principles related to motion and gravity with precise timing and minimal setup.

Key Features:

• Accurate Timing: Measures acceleration due to gravity using a ball bearing and millisecond timer.
• Easy Setup: Integrated vibration sensor stops the timer when the ball bearing hits the impact plate.
• Versatile: Includes two ball bearings (12 mm and 8 mm) for comparing different masses.
• No Extra Power Needed: Works with de-bounced timers; requires 9V DC only if using a model with “bouncy” inputs.
• Durable: Over-moulded rubber landing plate for long-lasting use.

Educational Benefits:

• Illustrates Gravity: Demonstrates constant acceleration due to gravity for all objects, regardless of mass.
• Hands-On Experimentation: Perfect for experiments in physics, motion, and forces.

Supplied With:

• Base with vibration sensor
• Release unit
• 12 mm and 8 mm ball bearings
• Full instructions

Additional Information:

• Power Requirements: No power for de-bounced timers, 9V DC for additional delay.
• Compact Design: Easy to store and use in classroom settings.
