Aluminum Inclined Plane, Constant Velocity, 1C10.40
Topic and Concept:
Motion in One Dimension, 1C10. Velocity
Location:
Cabinet: Mechanic (ME)
- South Wall
Shelf: #1
Abstract:
A large steel ball accelerates down the inclined track and onto a flat track as a metronome ticks at constant time intervals.

Important Setup Notes:
Practice releasing the ball in sync with the beats of the metronome. The metronome time may need adjusting so that the ball hits those marks.
- For fine adjustment, move the horizontal tack up or down the incline track. When the horizontal track starts at #1, there is a fair amount of energy lost due to friction, and the ball bearing slows down by the end of the track. If the horizontal take-off starts at the #4 instead of #1, the metronome time needs to be doubled, and the demonstration is much better.
- About 5 minutes of setup time is needed.
Setup and Procedure:
- Start by setting the metronome at 56 beats per minute.
- Place the ball bearing at the top of the inclined plane(main track).
- Release. When released, the ball should pass each mark on the track with the beats of the metronome. The ball should pass through #1 on the main track, then hits marks 2, 3, 4 and 5 (i.e. the basket) that are on the side of the horizontal track.
Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:
- Please do not drop the steel ball bearings
