Accessory Items

Centripetal Force Apparatus Motor Accessory Kit
This kit controls the rotational rate of the Go Direct® Centripetal Force System so students can focus on a single variable and deepen their understanding of cause and effect. The Motor Accessory Kit drives the experiment setup at a constant angular velocity while students evaluate the centripetal acceleration and/or force required to maintain an object rotating at a specified radius. The rotational rate is adjustable. Specifications The speed can be controlled to a maximum of about 9.6 radians per second (~90 revolutions per minute or ~550 degrees per second). What's included Motor Bracket and attachment to base Power supply with variable speed control O-ring User Manual - GDX-CFA-MAK-INTL

Physics Explorations and Projects
This book contains over 30 guided-inquiry-based investigations for physics students to explore and analyze key physics concepts included in NGSS. Description Physics Explorations and Projects is a collection of laboratory investigations aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Most included investigations set up a situation for students to explore and analyze with some guidance from the instructor—a guided-inquiry format that is very different from traditional laboratory experiments that provide step-by-step instructions. The activities are editable and appropriate for high school students from 9th grade to AP Physics. Sample results are included with the extensive instructor information. Due to the nature of these activities, minimal instruction is provided for software use and data analysis. Instructor experience with Vernier sensors and software is recommended.
