EF 2.2 SIMPLE HARMONIC MOTION

Description

Simple Harmonic Motion experiments kit enables students to understand the effect of mass and length of pendulum on SHM and the period of oscillation. The relationship between SHM and gravity is evaluated using the Kater’s pendulum, as well as understanding SHM in

a mass spring system.

Features

  • Applied student Learning via Building and experimentation
  • Supplied with a detailed instruction manual, covering the theory of beams including multiple practical experiments designed to further develop the students’ understanding in this field.
  • Hands-on Learning
  • Clear and concise pictorial assembly instructions enhance the learning experience
  • Multiple experimental capability per self-contained kit
  • Tool-Less assembly
  • Neatly presented in an easily identifiable and durable storage tray.
