The Rotary Motion Sensor and Rotational Motion Accessory Kit can be used to study rotational inertia, conservation of angular momentum, and additional experiments.
Due to recent changes in U.S. trade policy, new tariffs are being implemented that impact our products. This means a surcharge of 5% will be applied to orders received starting May 12th, with the exception of software and books. Learn more.
The Rotary Motion Sensor and Rotational Motion Accessory Kit can be used to study the motion of a physical pendulum; the rotational inertia of disks, rings, and point masses; and the conservation of angular momentum. Monitor angular motion precisely and easily. It is direction sensitive. You can use it to collect angular displacement, angular velocity, and angular acceleration data. Typical experiments include measuring moments of inertia, torque, pendula, and Atwood’s machine experiments. Even though we call it a Rotary Motion Sensor, it can also be used to measure linear position to a fraction of a millimeter.
