Maxwell Wheel
Product Code : EL-LE-12090
Eduscope India is a leading Maxwell Wheel
Quick Answer: The Maxwell Wheel demonstrates the validity of the law of conservation of energy using a Maxwell disc that converts potential energy into kinetic energy - both translational and rotational - as it descends.
As a physics lab equipment India resource for mechanics teaching, students release the disc from rest at the top of its cords and observe it fall while spinning, illustrating how gravitational potential energy is shared between linear and rotational kinetic energy through the descent and rebound. It pairs naturally with EduScope India's Wheel And Axle, On Stand for a fuller classroom set on rotational mechanics.
