Combination Track/Optics Bench - 1.2 meter

This completely wireless system simplifies experiment setup and allows basic experiments to be conducted with or without the track. Description The Dynamics Cart and Track System with Go Direct Sensor Cart includes essential laboratory equipment for teaching dynamics and kinematics. Using our Go Direct Sensor Cart, 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 experiments to be conducted on or off the track. Specifications Position resolution: 0.25 mm, reported by default at 1 mm steps Force range: ±50 N Accelerometer range: ±160 m/s2 Track length: 1.2 m

This bracket allows a Vernier Motion Detector to be attached to the end of a Vernier dynamics system track for studying cart motion and collisions.

Use the Diffraction Apparatus to map light intensity vs. position for various slit geometries. The Diffraction Apparatus let students create, view, and measure diffraction and interference patterns. The included Red Diffraction Laser provides a clean monochromatic light source. Slits are made by depositing metal film on glass, creating extraordinarily clean slits with fully opaque blocking areas. These high-precision slits cast clean diffraction and interference patterns, ideal for quantitative matching of intensity vs. position predictions. The Linear Position Sensor and High Sensitivity Light Sensor completes the Diffraction Apparatus. In order to provide excellent spatial resolution, a selectable entrance aperture restricts the width of the pattern viewed by the High Sensitivity Light Sensor. The light sensor has three ranges, allowing the study of fine details or gross features of patterns. To measure position, the light sensor is mounted on a novel Linear Position Sensor. This position sensor uses a precision optical encoder to measure translation with better than 50 micron resolution. Since it is optically based, without gears or racks, it has zero backlash. Data collection is performed by choosing a slit, directing the laser through the slit, and choosing an entrance aperture for the light sensor. Both the light sensor and position sensor connect to your interface. The light sensor is moved by hand over a 150 mm distance, tracing out the diffraction pattern. The Diffraction Apparatus requires a Combination 1.2 m Track/Optics Bench individually or part of the Dynamics Cart and Track System. An optional Green Diffraction Laser is also available, so that the effect of wavelength on the pattern can be measured.

The Polarizer/Analyzer Set extends the Optics Expansion Kit to allow students to study polarization of light. Using a Rotary Motion Sensor to record analyzer angle, Malus's Law experiments are easy, detailed, and accurate. The Polarizer/Analyzer Set includes a Fixed Polarizer, an Adjustable Analyzer, and an Adjustable Analyzer for Rotary Motion Sensor. Add to these the Light Source and Light Sensor Holder from the OEK, a Rotary Motion Sensor, and the Light Sensor for a complete system for studying polarization. The Fixed Polarizer linearly polarizes the light from the Light Source. The Adjustable Analyzer for Rotary Motion Sensor uses the Rotary Motion Sensor to record the angle of the analyzer. The Adjustable Analyzer can be placed after the Polarizer to study the curious behavior of stacks of three polarizers. A Light Sensor measures the transmitted light intensity, allowing a simple Malus’s Law activity. Polarizer passes vertically polarized light. Adjustable Analyzer for Rotary Motion Sensor includes a mount for the Vernier Rotary Motion Sensor to record the analyzer angle. Adjustable Analyzer includes an angle scale for manual reading of the polarizer angle.

Questa nuova rotaia, in alluminio anodizzato e serigrafa- ta in cm e mm, è stata ridisegnata per aumentare le prestazioni del modello precedente; è sempre disponibile in due lunghezze da 1,2 m e da 2,2 m e dispone adesso di una ulteriore stringa a barre per l’utilizzo per il nuovo sistema encoder digitale; la struttura è molto rigida ed è scongiurato il pericolo delle flessioni durante l’uso. Ė possibile raddoppiare la lunghezza tramite un giunto di connessione ed una rotaia addizionale. I carrelli dinamici, di nuovo disegno, sono lo strumento perfetto per gli esperimenti di cinematica e dinamica; sono compatibili con i sensori di forza e di accelerazione, e possono essere montati sui carrelli stessi; sono facil- mente zavorrabili con quattro pesetti da montare lateralmen- te ed facile cambiare la configurazione velcro/magneti; il montaggio dei sensori è una operazione di grande sem- plicità. Fate andare su e giù il carrello per la Rotaia per studiarne il moto o usate due carrelli per analizzare la conservazione della quantità di moto in un urto. Grazie ad un attrito bassissimo con la rotaia, ottenuto tramite speciali cuscinetti a sfera, questi carrelli di eccezionale qualità permettono di ottenere dati di laboratorio privi di rumore e facilissimi da analizzare. Le estremità smonta- bili possono essere dotate di respingenti magnetici o di adesivi in velcro, rendendo i carrelli estremamente versa- tili. Uno dei due carrelli viene fornito con un respingente meccanico a molla che permette di effettuare esperimenti per lo studio di collisioni o “esplosioni” di carrelli. In questa rotaia è possibile montare una serie di acces- sori che permettono di effettuare esperimenti di base ed avanzati di ottica geometrica (vedere pagine seguenti). I sistemi combinati V-VDS (da 1,2 m) e V-VDSL (2,2 m) comprendono: Rotaia da 1,2 m o da 2,2 m, dotata di serigrafia con barre, utilizzabile anche per esperimenti di ottica e con possibilità di espansione con rilevamento ad encoder. Carrello standard con estremità rimovibili magnetiche e/o adesive con velcro, Carrello con respingente meccanico con estremità rimovibili magnetiche e/o adesive con velcro, Serie di 4 masse esagonali da 125 g, Coppia di piedini regolabili in altezza, Blocchi di fine corsa regolabili, Un supporto per sensore di posizione 2 supporti per fototraguardi, Supporti per sensori e fotocellule Fine corsa regolabile

This leveler adjusts the height of one end of the Vernier Dynamics Track. You need two to support the track. Two of these parts are included with Combination 1.2 m Track/Optics Bench, Combination 2.2 m Track/Optics Bench, Dynamics Cart and Track System, and Dynamics Cart and Track System with Motion Encoder.

The Rod Clamp is used to attach one end of a Vernier Dynamics Track to a vertical ring stand rod. This configuration is most often used to create a ramp.

Experiments in additive and subtractive color mixing can be easily and conveniently carried out using the Vernier Color Mixer Kit. The Color Mixer Kit consists of a three-color LED illuminator with power supply, a lens, and a double-sided screen. The intensity of the red, blue and green LEDs can be smoothly controlled from the light source. For more optics experiments with the Dynamics Cart and Track System, see the Optics Expansion Kit (OEK). The Color Mixer Kit requires a Vernier Track to serve as an optics bench. The Vernier Track is included with a Vernier Dynamics Cart and Track System. User manual

The Mirror Set for Optics Expansion Kit includes a Half Screen, an adjustable Concave Mirror, and a fixed Convex Mirror. Use these parts with the Light Source and Screen on the Optics Expansion Kit and the track from the Vernier Dynamics System to observe and measure real and virtual images cast by mirrors. With mirrors solidly mounted on a track acting as an optics bench, your students can quickly understand how images are formed and located.
