Stability of Floating Body Apparatus

Product Code : SCL-CELE-14123

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Stability of Floating Body Apparatus (Product ID: 14123) as part of its Civil Engineering Lab Equipment range. It shows stable, neutral and unstable equilibrium of a floating pontoon.

Quick Answer

A rectangular plastic pontoon (325 x 200 mm, 450 mm high) has a 0.6 kg weight sliding up a 400 mm scaled mast to change the centre of gravity, and a 0.2 kg lateral weight on a cross rod to heel it. A plumb bob reads the heel angle on a ±30° scale. By moving the weights, students find the metacentric height and see all three equilibrium conditions.
