Rotational Inertia Demonstrator

Product Code : ILS-FAM-11688

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Rotational Inertia Demonstrator (Product ID: 11688) as part of its forces and motion range. It shows how torque and mass distribution control angular acceleration, with the moment of inertia found both by calculation and by experiment.

Quick Answer

A rope wound round a pulley applies the torque. Moving the rope to a pulley of different radius changes the torque, and sliding masses along the arm changes the moment of inertia. Students calculate the moment of inertia from the masses and dimensions, then measure the angular acceleration for a known torque and compare, using τ = Iα. Changes are easy to see even in a quick qualitative demonstration.
