Rotating System on Air Bed
Product Code : EL-PLE-15450
Eduscope India is a leading Rotating System on Air Bed
Quick Answer: The Rotating System on Air Bed is a near-frictionless rotational dynamics apparatus in which a disc floats on a cushion of air, enabling precise study of moment of inertia and torque, a specialized item of physics lab equipment India educators use within our laboratory equipment school India range for rotational mechanics.
Construction and Specifications
The system centres on an air bed with a rotating disc and cross bar, driven via a multiple pulley and release mechanism using S-shaped hooks and a set of weights (2x 12.5g, 2x 25g, 2x 50g) on cotton thread. Air comes from an airflow generator (compressor) for connection to mains via silicon tubing with a by-pass valve. Stand rods and a levelling disc ensure alignment, with rotation read on a 0-360° protractor scale, 1° divisions. Moment of inertia of the disc with cross bar is 0.16 g·m², maximum 7.1 g·m², with driving torque of 0.05-0.60 mN·m for studying angular acceleration under near-frictionless conditions.
