Physics Educational Materials
Avantor offers a complete catalog of instruments and tools useful for demonstrating key, basic concepts of physics that are applicable to everyday life both in and out of the laboratory. Demonstrate core ideas such as acceleration down a plane, friction, potential and kinetic energy, electrical conductivity, magnetic fields, wavelengths and velocity of sound, and more. Durable educational materials are designed for heavy use with consistent levels of handling, and all models are easy to use.
Contact Key
Used to open and close an electrical circuit momentarily, it is also excellent for demonstrating Morse code.
Handheld Discharge Electrode
The Handheld Discharge Electrodeeasily and safely discharges an electrostatic generator.
Students Dynamic Cart Set
A set of dynamic cart trolleys are used for investigation on momentum, velocity and acceleration. Each trolley consists of two rectangular wooden blocks, 300 mm long, moving on three low friction wheels (ball bearings in wheels). The trolley is fitted with spring loaded impulse rod. It has a provision for stacking the trolleys on top of each other with removable pins. It is supplied with two rubber corks and 2 needles, so trolleys may be stuck together for inelastic collisions. A striking pin for releasing the striker and 3 pins or dowels for stacking are provided. One trolley weight approximately 1 kg.
Steel Long Form Inclined Plane
This inclined plane is as straight as an arrow, measures a full 4' long, and will last for years. Is built of nickle-plated heavy steel with rounded corners, and can accomondate just about any kind of cart you choose.
Resistance Substitution Apparatus
The Resistance Substitution Apparatus is convenient for general-purpose resistance work.
Screen Set
Fine heavy-duty Bristol board screens that fit into our screen support on your meter-stick optical bench.
Patch Cord, Banana/Alligator
Flexible, 18 gauge wire with a banana plug at one end and an alligator clip at the other.
