Lever

Function and Applications

Lever rod for the investigation of the lever principles, to assemble a beam balance and for equilibrium and pendulum experiments.

Equipment and technical data

• Metal rod with scale subdivisions every 20 mm.
• 20 equidistant pins to hang spring balances, balance pans or weight supports with slotted weights and hook weights.
• Hole at the centre of gravity (indifferent balance).
• Hole over the centre of gravity to assemble the beam balance.
• 8 further holes along the lever rod for physical pendulum investigations.
• Length: 430 mm.
