1G10.10

acceleration air glider

Air track cart pulled by a falling weight.

1G10.10

acceleration air glider

Accelerate a car on a track with a mass on a string over a pulley.

1G10.10

glider, mass, and pulley

An air track cart is timed while pulled by a mass on a string over a pulley.

1G10.10

string and weight acceleration (air

Three cases of an air glider pulled by a falling weight.

1G10.11

constant mass acceleration system

A cart on the air track is accelerated by a mass on a string over a pulley and final velocity timed photoelectrically. Keep the mass of the system constant by transferring from the cart to the pan.

1G10.11

acceleration air glider

Air cart with a string over a pulley to a mass. Vary mass on both cart and hanger.

1G10.12

acceleration air glider on incline

An puck is timed as it floats up an incline pulled by a string to a weight over a pulley.

1G10.13

acceleration air glider on incline

An air track cart is accelerated up an inclined track by the string, pulley and mass system. A newton scale is included on the cart to measure the tension in the string directly. An electromagnet release and photogate timer at a fixed distance are used to derive acceleration.

1G10.14

acceleration glider accelerometer

An elegant pendulum accelerometer designed for the air track. Reflected laser beam is directed to a scale at one end of the track.

1G10.16

acceleration with spring (air track)

An air track glider is pulled by a small spring hand held at constant extension.

1G10.17

constant force generators

A note that picks some nits about the hanging mass, mentions the "Neg'ator" spring.

1G10.18

battery propeller force generator

Plans for a battery powered air track propeller that provides a constant force.

1G10.19

constant force generator

A constant force generator for the air track based on the induction of eddy currents. It is easy to handle and can be self-made.

1G10.20

acceleration car

Time the acceleration of a toy truck as it is pulled across the table by a mass on a string over a pulley.

1G10.21

acceleration car and track

Apparatus Drawings Project No. 15: Large low friction acceleration carts and track for use in the lecture demonstration.

1G10.21

acceleration car

Three different pulley arrangements allow a cart to be accelerated across the table top.

1G10.21

acceleration car

A car is accelerated by a descending weight.

1G10.21

acceleration car, mass & pulley

Distance and time are measured as a toy truck is accelerated by a mass and pulley system.

1G10.24

acceleration car photo

Take a strobed photo of a light on a car pulled by a weight on a string over a pulley.

1G10.25

acceleration block

Accelerate a block of wood across the table by a mass on a string over a pulley.

1G10.26

acceleration car

A complex arrangement to accelerate a car, vary parameters, and graph results is shown. Details in appendix, p.549.

1G10.30

weight of a mass

Suspend a mass from a spring balance and then cut the string.

1G10.30

mass on a scale

Hang a mass on a spring scale to show reaction of the scale to mg.

1G10.40

Atwood's machine

Two equal masses are hung from a light pulley. A small percentage of one mass is moved to the other side.

1G10.40

Atwood's machine

Place 1 kg on each side of a light pulley on good bearings. Add 2 g to one side.

1G10.40

Atwood's machine

Three skeletonized aluminum pulleys are mounted together on good bearings. Many combinations of weights may be tried.

1G10.40

Atwood's machine

Two equal masses are hung from a light pulley. A small percentage of one mass is moved to the other side.

Atwood's machine

An Atwood's machine using an air pulley.

1G10.40

Atwood's machine

The small weight is removed after a period of acceleration and the resulting constant velocity is measured.

1G10.42

Atwood's machine

Hang the weights from spring balances on each side.

1G10.44

Atwood's machine

A rotation free Atwood's machine using air bearing surface and spark timer.
