Newton’s Tube - code: 4134.00

A falling body is independent of its mass and shape. Using Newton’s Tube we can demonstrate the independence of mass and shape of a falling body. The apparatus consists of a vacuum tube containing a feather and a piece of metal. We can visually demonstrate both bodies falling together inside the evacuated tube.
Equipment needed
Vacuum pump (code 4184.21)
experiments
  • Free fall motion in vacuum
