Ideal for Physics

This bi-directional sensor is ideal for Physics departments. Its three-tier low friction pulley is capable of measuring a variety of motions including pendulum, angular and linear.

On the front of the Sensor is a three-tier pulley with 49mm, 31mm and 1mm diameters.

The Rotary Motion Sensor is supplied with a mounting rod that can be attached to four sides of the sensor and then clamped into a suitable holding device in many different orientations. It has a reset button that sets the output of the Sensor to centre point of the scale.

Additional Accessories

The optional Rotary Motion Accessory kit widens the range of investigations this sensor can achieve as listed below.

Conservation of angular momentum
Moments of inertia
Pendulum investigations
Gravitational rotational energy
Frictional torque
Rotational collisions
Rotational inertia
Linear displacement of an object or sensor e.g. movement of gas syringe, distance moved by a sensor, etc.

Teaching Activities

The Rotary Motion Sensor can be used to investigate a number of scientific experiments such as:

Study of pendulums and SHM
Time distance with a dynamics system
Motion of a Clifton(wedge) spirometer
Measurement of linear distance
Conservation of angular momentum
