Demo Title: Pulleys and Pulley Systems
Condition: Good
Principle: Work and Translation of Motion
Area of Study: Mechanics
Equipment:
Pulley Demo, Assorted Pulleys, and Hanging Masses.
Procedure:
The pulley demo may have to have new rubber bands or in place of the rubber bands some instructors prefer of have a hanging mass. There are two of the most complicated pulley system so that if the string falls off the pulleys on one set you can transfer to the other set without wasting a lot of time in class restringing.
