Triangle Of Forces Apparatus Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Features
Low cost, effective teaching
Self-contained
Bench mounted
Direct measurement of forces
Adjustable lines of action of forces
Practical verification of triangle of forces
Three year warranty
Range of Experiments
To find any suitable combination of three coplanar forces in equilibrium
To compare the results with the graphical solution obtained by drawing the triangle of forces
To demonstrate that th resultant of two known forces is equal and opposite to the equilibrant found experimentally
Description
A
bench mounted circular table with a central pin and 360º protractor has
three pulleys on adjustable clamps round the edge. Conditions of
equilibrium are obtained by centralising a small cord ring over the
central pin with cords to load hangers where the loads and lines of
action are variable.
The triangle of forces in equilibrium can be constructed and the resultant of two known forces can be found.
This
equipment is part of a range designed to both demonstrate and
experimentally confirm basic engineering principles. Great care has been
given to each item so as to provide wide experimental scope without
unduly complicating or compromising the design. Each piece of apparatus
is self-contained and compact. Setting up time is minimal, and all
measurements are made with the simplest possible instrumentation, so
that the student involvement is purely with the engineering principles
being taught. A complete instruction manual is provided describing the
apparatus, its application, experimental procedure and typical test
results.
