Description
This very low-cost vertical force table produces excellent results (less that 2% error) which relates the equilibrium of two forces to the weight applied and reinforces to students the application of vectors both in the classroom and in everyday life. Setup is easy and students can change the settings in seconds allowing them to examine different vector scenarios.
