Centripetal Force Kit
Product Code : SCL-PLE-11586
The StemAids Centripetal Force Kit is a multi-modular laboratory demonstrator designed for the empirical study of circular motion, inertia, and the relationship between rotational velocity and radial force. Optimized for Middle School and Secondary STEM curricula, it provides a functional platform for visualizing Fc=rmv2 through three distinct physical experiments. Manufactured to ISO 9001:2015 standards this durable system ensures standardized instructional delivery for institutional physics and rotational mechanics modules.

Key Pedagogical Outcomes (Bloom’s Taxonomy Alignment)
- Rotational Distortion Interface -> Facilitates student visualization of how forces act on flexible bodies to alter geometry (e.g., Earth's equatorial bulge), supporting Mechanics Module 101 (Understanding).
- Centrifugal-Centripetal Modeling -> Enables the physical study of how liquid remains contained in test tubes despite a 90? orientation shift during high-velocity rotation (Applying).
Radial Dependency Analysis -> Supports the Analysis of how increasing the radius of the MS balls impacts the magnitude of outward movement, reinforcing the r1 relationship in the force equation.
- Vector Force Evaluation -> Allows students to Evaluate the "fictitious" nature of centrifugal force versus the real centripetal tension required to maintain a circular path (Evaluating).
International Logistics & Compliance
- Packaging: Export-grade ISPM-15 compliant Corrugated box with high-density internal stabilization for test tubes and steel hoops.
- Documentation: Includes Manufacturer’s Authorization Form (MAF), Certificate of Conformance (CoC), and Teacher/Technician Manuals.
- Durability: Tropicalized design with anti-corrosion treatments for the steel hoops and UV-stabilized plastic components to prevent brittleness.
Direct OEM Sourcing Advantages
- Vertical Integration: Total control over hoop elasticity and test tube suspension pivots ensures reliable, repeatable demonstrations across bulk institutional rollouts.
- Reliability Protocols: Batch-tested for mechanical axle integrity and smooth slidable adjustment under rotational load.
- Institutional Support: Guaranteed direct factory availability for replacement test tubes, MS balls, and steel hoops ensures maximized asset lifecycle and superior long-term ROI.
