Newton's 2nd law/ demonstration track with Cobra SMARTsense

Principle

According to Newton's 2nd law of motion for a mass point, the relationship between mass, acceleration and force are investigated.

Tasks

1. The distance-time law, the velocity time law and the relationship between mass, acceleration and force are determined.
2. The conservation of energy can be investigated.

Benefits

• Accurate results due to measurements with low friction: cart with sapphire bearings
• Over the entire track length adjustable feet for a very simple alignment of the track even on small tables
• Extremely robust accessories, for example no overloading of carts due to elastic bearing of base plate, prevent unnecessary breakdowns
• Silent operation

Learning objectives

• Linear motion
• Velocity
• Acceleration
• Conservation of energy
