Applied mechanics apparatus and codes

Twenty of the 43 products are shown here with a specification from each product page. The full list is in the product grid below, including further inclined plane models, the Maxwell wheel, a whirling table, and demonstration models of petrol and steam engines, a hydraulic brake and Newton's laws of motion.

Experiments in the applied mechanics lab

The fly wheel, inertia table, inertia disc and bifilar pendulum are used to find moments of inertia. The torsion pendulum and Maxwell's vibration needle find the modulus of rigidity of a wire by the dynamical method, and the Searle's and Barton's torsion apparatus find it for a rod by the static method. The bending of beam apparatus, the Koenig's method beam and the cantilever find Young's modulus from the depression of a loaded bar.

Kater's reversible pendulum gives the acceleration due to gravity. The parallelogram apparatus and universal force table verify the parallelogram law and the equilibrium of concurrent forces, and the moments disc and lever apparatus verify the principle of moments. The inclined plane resolves the weight of a roller along and across the plane, the Fletcher trolley records uniform acceleration, and the wheel and axle shows mechanical advantage.

Specification examples

The Torsion (Barton's) Apparatus, Vertical Pattern (EL-AM-10320) twists its test rod with a torsional drum turned by a scale pan over two pulleys, and reads the twist on three sliding circular scales graduated in single degrees. It sits on a heavy cast iron base with levelling screws and comes with three test rods, strings and two scale pans. Kater's Reversible Pendulum (EL-AM-10324) carries large and small brass weights plus two hardwood weights, with a cast iron wall bracket, and is also offered with a stainless steel or chrome-plated steel rod.

Questions about applied mechanics apparatus

What is the difference between the Searle's and Barton's torsion apparatus?

The Searle's type (EL-AM-10319) is a horizontal bench pattern with a 165 mm grooved wheel and two brass scales graduated 30-0-30 degrees. The Barton's type (EL-AM-10320) is a vertical pattern with a 900 mm rod, a torsional drum and three sliding circular scales. Both measure the modulus of rigidity by the static method.

Which apparatus measure moment of inertia?

The Fly Wheel (EL-AM-10316), Inertia Table (EL-AM-10314), Inertia Disc (EL-AM-10315) and Bifilar Pendulum (EL-AM-10325) are used for moment of inertia experiments.

Are slotted weights included?

It depends on the item. The lever apparatus, brass inclined plane, wheel and axle and Barton's apparatus are supplied without weights, while the Universal Force Table includes four sets of nine slotted weights, each set with a 50 gm hanger.

Is this range for school or engineering laboratories?

These apparatus serve school and degree-level physics practicals. Machine apparatus such as governors, gyroscopes and cams for engineering courses are in the Theory of Machine Lab subcategory of Engineering Lab.
