Centre of Gravity Apparatus

Product Code : SCL-AM-11876

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Centre of Gravity Apparatus (Product ID: 11876) as part of its applied mechanics range. A school apparatus for locating the centre of gravity of bodies and showing how it affects balance and stability.

Quick Answer

A freely hanging body comes to rest with its centre of gravity directly below the point of suspension. Suspending a flat shape from two different points and marking the vertical line through each therefore locates the centre of gravity where the two lines cross. The apparatus is supplied in a standard school-laboratory specification, and other configurations can be made for specific uses; please confirm the parts included at quotation.

Where This Is Used

Used in school lessons on centre of gravity, equilibrium and stability. Related: Moments Disc Apparatus (Product ID: 10919) and Lever/Force into Force Arm Apparatus (Product ID: 10899). Browse the full Applied Mechanics range or related Forces and Motion products.
