Moments Disc Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : ILS-AM-10919
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Moments Disc Apparatus (Product ID: 10919) as part of its applied mechanics range. A balanced aluminium disc on a ball bearing for verifying the principle of moments with loads at different points.
Quick Answer
The machine-turned aluminium disc is balanced about its axis, turns on a ball bearing and clamps vertically on a tripod stand. Two pins carrying scale pans fit into any of the holes in the disc, so loads can act at different distances from the axis. When the disc comes to rest, the perpendicular distance of each load line from the axis is read on the horizontal graduated mirror-glass scale with the help of the plumb line, and the clockwise and anticlockwise moments are compared. Please confirm whether the tripod stand and weights are included at quotation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the scale a mirror?
Lining the plumb line up with its reflection avoids parallax error.
Where are the loads attached?
On two pins that fit any of the holes in the disc.
What does it verify?
That clockwise and anticlockwise moments balance.
