Air Track PMK 140 & PMK 145 is very ideal apparatus for kinematic and dynamic experiment which needs friction free state so that the experiment result is quantitatively better. Air track is provided with Photo Gates and Timer Counter which are specially designed for study in basic law of motion.
Time measurement system consists of photo gates and a timer counter which is able to determine accurately the time interval when the glider passing through the photo gates. Time measurement system enables all time measuring in an experiment such as time measuring in two different places on the track and time measuring on events which are nearly at the same time such as in a collision experiment.
There are two rail length options, PMK 140 has 1.5 meter rail length is used for basic experiment, while PMK 145 has 2 meter rail length is use for advanced experiment.
Provided with experiment manual book.
