Photogate sensor
Wireless photogate sensor for accurate time and velocity measurements in six experiments on kinematics, collisions and oscillations.
The photogate records interruptions of a light beam, measures short time intervals accurately and transmits the data to a digital laboratory system. It supports six experiments: determining the instantaneous speed from the time for which the beam is interrupted by a flag of known width, measuring the acceleration of gravity when a body passes through two gates, checking the law of conservation of momentum during collisions of carts, measuring the period of oscillation of a simple and compound pendulum, studying uniformly accelerated motion on an inclined plane and checking Newton’s second law. Used in laboratory work on mechanics.
