Ring and Disk Apparatus Conceptual Physics The 120 cm ramp mounts

The 120 cm ramp mounts easily to the Physics Workshop Stand and can be set at angles up to 65°

Ring and Disk Apparatus Conceptual Physics The 120 cm ramp mountsDemonstrate rotational inertia with a surprising race down a ramp The Ring and Disk apparatus delivers a classic, thought provoking demonstration of rotational motion and inertia. Two objects of nearly equal mass and radiusone a solid disk and the other a ringare released on an incline. Which reaches the bottom first? By requiring students to reason through rotational inertia rather than just mass or size, the Ring and Disk provides a clear, engaging
