Spring Tester Kit

Product Description

Description:

This versatile kit allows many experiments using differentarrangements of its parts. Students, teachers or lecturers fit the parts of thekit to the Work Panel to study or demonstrate an engineering science topic.This kit includes different coiled springs for experiments in spring testing.These include extension springs, compression springs, parallel springs andsprings that can connect in series. Students test the springs to prove Hooke’sLaw and find their spring rate, comparing it with given manufacturer’s values.They also test springs in parallel and series to see how this affects theoverall spring rate. The kit helps students to understand the link betweenspring rate, spring extension and the design and construction of springs. It introduces students to key engineering terms such as:

• Spring rate
  
• Hooke’s Law
  
• Spring pretension
