Guinea and Feather Apparatus
Product Code : EL-LE-16342
Eduscope India is a leading Guinea and Feather Apparatus
Quick Answer: The Guinea and Feather Apparatus is a 16 mm diameter, 50 cm glass-tube apparatus, fitted with two rubber bungs and connectable to a vacuum pump, used to demonstrate that objects of different weight fall at the same speed in a vacuum.
As a physics instruments supplier India apparatus, EduScope India supplies this Guinea and Feather Apparatus for demonstrating that objects fall at the same speed regardless of weight once air resistance is removed in a vacuum. It consists of a 16 mm diameter glass tube, 50 cm long, fitted with two rubber bungs, with a 40 cm section of tubing for connection to a vacuum pump so that the air inside can be evacuated before the demonstration. It pairs naturally with EduScope India's Boyle's Law Apparatus for a fuller range of physics lab equipment used in mechanics and gas-law experiments.
