Rotational Collisions
Measure the change in angular velocity when a rotating disc experiences a sudden change in rotational inertia. Supports PASCO's Physics Extension Lab Station: http://pasco.com/product/ep-3580 Find...
Featured Equipment
Wireless Rotary Motion Sensor
The Wireless Rotary Motion Sensor measures angle, angular velocity, and angular acceleration, as well as their linear equivalents.
Rotational Inertia Accessory
Add the Rotational Inertia Accessory to a PASCO Rotary Motion Sensor (PS-3220 or PS-2120) to study the rotational inertia of a disk, a steel ring, and point masses.
Physics Starter Lab Station
This starter Lab Station includes the wireless motion, force, current and voltage sensors used to perform some of the key lab activities from the Physics Lab Station Investigations manual.
Support
Many lab activities can be conducted with our Wireless, PASPORT, or even ScienceWorkshop sensors and equipment. For assistance with substituting compatible instruments, contact PASCO Technical Support. We're here to help.
