HIGH RESOLUTION FORCE SENSOR

This High Resolution Force Sensor has the same case as the regular Force Sensor, and can perform all of the same experiments. Along with much higher resolution, the dynamic variable over-sampling greatly reduces the measurement noise at low sample rates.

 

The digital design of the High Resolution Force Sensor results in very little drift, ensuring that the tare will hold for hours. You can use this force sensor as a pan balance for long term experiments, like investigating the evaporation of liquids such as alcohol or liquid nitrogen, and the sublimation of dry ice!

 

 

PASCO FORCE SENSOR

Connect any PASCO Force Sensor to this convenient stand and students have an electronic balance for a wide variety of physics experiments.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MOTION SENSOR

Whether measuring the motion of a ball, a dynamics cart or a person, you need good, clean data from your Motion Sensor. Our Motion Sensor uses false target rejection technology–no more spikes or other discontinuities in your data. Objects can be as close as 15 cm, leaving more space on your table for experiments (many motion sensors require objects to be 40 cm away, half the width of a lab table).

 

 

 

 

LIGHT LEVEL SENSOR

The Light Level Sensor measures illuminance in lux. The readings of this sensor mimic the wavelength sensitivity of the human eye, which is most sensitive in the green portion of the spectrum. This is achieved with a green filter in the light sensor.

 

 

 

 

 

PASCAR DYNAMICS SYSTEM

Few investments in physics lab equipment provide more learning opportunities than the PAScar Dynamics Systems -- perfect for experiments in Newton's Laws, collisions, velocity and acceleration. Get the advantages of a very low-friction apparatus without the noise and expense of air tracks.

 

 

 

PASCO DYNAMICS TRACK OPTICS KIT

The PASCO Dynamics Track Optics Kit includes specially-designed slides (carriages) that snap on the dynamics track. PASCO Basic Optics components attach directly to the carriage for positioning anywhere on the track.

 

 

 

 

 

 

RAY OPTICS KIT

The Ray Optics Kit is a basic set of optic components for ray and color experiments. To use any of the components, place them on a flat tabletop in the path of rays from your ray box.

 

 

 

 

 

DISCOVER FRICTION ACCESSORY

This Discover Friction Accessory is unlike any other. This set of four friction trays with different surfaces (cork, felt, and 2 plastic) is designed for use with PASCO carts and sensors. Using these 4 trays, students can discover such concepts as coefficient of friction, static friction, kinetic friction and the sliding friction equations.

This 1.7 kg cast iron small "A" base has openings for both threaded and non-threaded rods. The A-shape provides stable support for experiment set-ups.

 

 

 

 

 

 

MULTI CLAMP

Multi Clamp Holds two rods either parallel or at right angles. Fits rods up to 12 mm (1/2 in.) in diameter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

COLLISION BRACKET

The Collision Bracket fastens to the T-slot of a dynamics track, and securely holds the Force Sensor for measuring collisions with a Cart. Includes two different springs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SPRINGS

This set of 12 springs (each with a 1.6 cm diameter) is designed for use with Dynamics Systems.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PASCO MASS AND HANGER SET

 PASCO’s Mass and Hanger Set features polycarbonate mass hangers with steel posts, and “holed” masses that will not fall off the hanger. There are 27 weights in all ranging from 0.5 g to 100 g. Each mass has its value marked, and each hanger can hold approximately 250 g.

 

 

 

 

 

BRAIDED DACRON STRING

This braided Dacron string is tough, it resists stretching, and it will not unravel. Withstands up to 133 newtons of force (equivalent to 13.6 kg) and has a linear density of 0.26 g/m. Each roll provides 320 meters of string. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ANGLE INDICATOR

The Angle Indicator is an accessory for PASCO Dynamics Systems. It is included in the Introductory Dynamics Systems.

 

 

 

 

 

 

PHOTOGATE PENDULUM SET

The Photogate Pendulum Set is a unique set of pendula that have exactly the same shape and size, but different masses. These pendula are ideal for use with photogates due to their cylindrical shape. One pendulum of brass, plastic, wood and aluminum is included.

 

 

 

 

 

 

PENDULUM SUSPENSION SET

Hang up to 3 pendula from precisely the same height. Suspension points are 54 mm apart. Fits rods up to 16 mm (5/8 in.) in diameter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

CLAMP-ON SUPER PULLEY

Can be used with cart picket fences, the clamp-on super pulley, and flexible Photogate Tape. With dual beams spaced at 1.5 cm  one gate can directly and accurately measure speed. The built-in laser switch (when used with any laser) allows you to time objects too large to fit through the standard Photogate.
