Metallic Dynamic Cart DY-5 (One pair)
C15-1622-W0
[Product Description]
Metallic Cart for Dynamic Experiments
[Overall Advantages to Users]
- Measured value close to the theoretical one can be obtained whenever conducting experiments on “Uniform motion”, “Motion with constant acceleration” and “Law of conservation of momentum”.
- Large enough mass of the cart (1kg+-2g) contributes to high repeatability of the experiments on “Kinetic momentum” or “Motion energy”.
- Wheels originally designed for the cart with quiet and low-friction three ball-bearing provide smooth running stability.
- The wheels are perfect for experiments of the uniform accelerated motion because of the low inertial mass and torque.
- Flat and spacious top enables a variety of motion experiments.
- Provided with unparalleled level of multifunctionality that allows a wide variety of motion experiments.

[To all users]
- Cart’s nominal weight (1kg) falls within the error range of +-0.002kg.
- Hence, consistent results in collision experiment with two dynamic carts are achievable.
- Newton Balance can be mounted on the top.
- Force sensor can be fixed to the top of the cart.
- The “Inertia Experiment Unit (C15-2962)”, sold separately, can be attached on the top of the cart.
- Weight(s) can be put on the top to add mass to the dynamic cart.
- Law of conservation of (linear) momentum and Elastic Collision experiments:
- (1) Perfect setting for experiments of law of conservation of (linear) momentum can be created by doubling the mass of the cart by connecting two carts together by Velcro.
- (2) Built-in spring plunger enables experiments including Elastic Collision.
[To teachers]
- The dynamic cart weighs 1kg and has a large enough inertial mass.
- The dynamic cart enables simple analysis (calculation) of experiments results when substituting the mass (m=1) to motion equation.
- Easy for students to affix one end of a spark timer tape on the dynamic cart.
- Newton balance can be attached to the top of the cart for measurement of force.
- Possible to collect data provided by a force sensor if attached to the dynamic cart.
- Easy and safe operation is available for students even on a ramp by stopping the dynamic cart with the built-in stopper.
[To students]
- Easy to calculate experiment results using motion equation.
- By using a Digital Newton Meter or a Force sensor attached to the dynamic cart, experiment result can be quantified which makes analysis easier.
