Maxwell Vibration Needle Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : ILS-AM-10900
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Maxwell Vibration Needle (Product ID: 10900) as part of its applied mechanics range. A torsional pendulum for finding the modulus of rigidity of a wire by Maxwell’s method.
Quick Answer
A hollow brass tube 40 cm long hangs from the test wire in a wire chuck and carries a mirror for reading its oscillations. Two solid and two hollow cylinders, each 10 cm long, fit the bore of the tube; swapping their positions changes the moment of inertia while the mass stays the same, so the modulus of rigidity can be found without knowing the tube’s own moment of inertia. Graduated scales and verniers on the sliding weights help set their positions. It comes with a ceiling attachment; a stand is not included.
