EISCO Collisions Kit – 48″ Collision Track, 2 Carts, 2 Sets of (3) Slotted Masses, Instructions, and More

The collisions kit is an ideal tool with which to introduce students to the concept of collision in terms of momentum and conservation of energy. Due to the inclusion of a pulley system, external forces can be applied to accelerate a cart. When a photo-gate system is attached to the included support rods, data can be easily and accurately recorded. This kit provides a visually and kinesthetically effective method for studying the physics involved in collisions.

Features

• KIT INCLUDES || Each collision kit contains 47.63in collision track, two collision carts, two sets of 3 slotted masses (50g, 20g, and 10g), two support feet with leveling screws, two photogate support rods, two support rod holders, one pulley, and an instruction booklet.
• EXPERIMENT GUIDE || Each Collision kit includes an instruction manual containing a reproducible student guide and a teacher’s guide for the experiment.
• VARIOUS ACTIVITIES || The Guide outlines three different activities; constant acceleration: inclined plane, constant acceleration: external force, and collisions and momentum.
• HANDS ON LEARNING || The collision-track apparatus offers students a hands-on way to investigate collisions in terms of momentum and conservation of energy. The pulley allows external forces to be used to accelerate a cart. Data can be accurately recorded using a photogate system attached to the support rods.
• RECOMMENDED GRADE LEVEL || Eisco’s Collision kit is recommended for students between grades 9-12. The Collision kit is an excellent hands-on learning tool for teaching physical science to high school students.
