Description
Foundation Physics, Loop Track
Please Note: The Foundation Physics Universal Stand is not included with the Loop Track and will need to be purchased separately using code PP00054183
When used with the Foundation Physics Universal Stand, this Loop Track enables students to investigate how a roller coaster car can stay on the track when it travels in a large, circular loop.
This uses a straight, 80 cm long portion of the track with a marble to investigate acceleration. The circular portion lets students experimentally determine the minimum velocity the marble needs to make one full trip around the loop.
A photogate system (not supplied) can be incorporated to take speed and acceleration measurements.
