Vernier™ Go Direct™ Sensor Cart Yellow

Vernier™ Go Direct™ Sensor Cart Yellow features built-in, wireless sensors for one-dimensional dynamics and kinematics experiments.

Supplier:  Vernier™ GDXCARTY

Catalog No. S39700

Description

• Accelerometer range: ±160 m/s²
• Full-featured dynamics cart includes:
  • Encoder wheel to report position
  • 3-axis accelerometer to measure independent acceleration
  • ±50 N force sensor to measure push and pulls
  • Mass trays for changing total mass
  • Plunger for collision and impulse studies
  • Low friction wheels for uniform motion
  • Exchangeable magnetic and hook-and-pile inserts for elastic and inelastic collisions
• Collect position, velocity, and acceleration data as a cart rolls freely up and down an incline.
• Observe collisions between two carts, test for the conservation of momentum, or measure energy changes during different types of collisions.
• Investigate the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration.
• Examine the energies involved in simple harmonic motion.
• Measure a cart's momentum change and compare it to the impulse it receives.
• Students can explore force, position, velocity, and acceleration directly on their Bluetooth-enabled device—no wires or additional equipment required. Each cart features built-in sensors to simplify experiment setup and allow investigations to be conducted on or off the track.
• Can be used for hands-on kinematics and dynamics demonstrations but can also be used as an individual sensor. Hang a mass and spring from the force sensor to study simple harmonic motion, or attach the cart to a turntable to study centripetal acceleration.
