Description
Includes
Insulated plate with 4mm connector socket, a pulse generator and a transformer with two 4mm plugs for its secondary winding, 35g of powdered sulphur and a flat brush.
- A plotting electrode slides over a plane counter electrode that is insulated and covered in powdered sulphur
- An AC voltage across the two electrodes results in the sulphur powder being attracted or repelled depending on the polarity of the plotting electrode
- A trace thus appears in the powder with ridges that are formed at constant intervals of time
- The distance between the ridges reflects the speed of the plotting electrode
Specifications:
- Transformer: Safety isolating transformer, short-circuit proof
- Output Voltage: 115-230V, safe to touch
- Protective Resistance: 1Meg Ohm
- Plate Dimensions: 390 x 270mm2
Can be used in conjunction with the pendulum and plotting electrode (U8405640) for experiments demonstrating Kepler's 2nd law of planetary motion or with a pair of elastic spheres and plotting electrode (U8405630) for experiments on elastic collisions.
