Principle

Prove that an equilibrium exists on a one-sided lever when the products of two conversely acting forces and their power arms are equal.

Benefits

Optimised for demonstration experiments: Transformation from horizontal into vertical direction
Very good visibility: Big devices on uniform background
Strong Magnets (at least 10 N) allow a safe mounting and therefore a very easy handling
Demonstrative measurement of forces with large circular dynamometers with a fixing magnet and ball-bearing pulley with two cord grooves for two measuring ranges
Magneto-adhesive measuring scale facilitate the measurements
