Gas pressure simulator
Gas-pressure model: plastic balls representing molecules move randomly in a transparent cylinder and collide with a piston.
The apparatus models the behavior of gas molecules: a built-in electric motor drives a vibrating disk, and plastic balls in a transparent working chamber move chaotically, hitting a movable disk with a rod. The model supports five demonstrations: from the chaotic movement of molecules and the occurrence of pressure to qualitative modeling of isothermal, isobaric and isochoric processes. For experiments with constant-parameter gas processes, a disc weight is added to the rod; it is not included in the kit. The apparatus is used in physics lessons when studying molecular kinetic theory and gas laws.
