Newton's 2nd Law Model
Product Code : SCL-PLE-11656
Quick Answer: The Newton’s 2nd Law Model is a track-and-trolley system with an anodised aluminium track 1.2m to 2.0m long, a ball-bearing trolley with mass slots and a pulley with slotted hanging masses, for testing how acceleration depends on force and mass.

Key Features
- Extruded anodised aluminium track, 1.2m to 2.0m long.
- Trolley with low-friction ball-bearing wheels and stackable mass slots.
- Pulley with slotted hanging masses to apply the force.
- Works with photogate timers or motion sensors.
- Adjustable screw feet for levelling the track.
Technical Specifications
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Track | Extruded anodised aluminium, 1.2m–2.0m |
| Trolley | Ball-bearing wheels, stackable mass slots |
| Force | Pulley with slotted hanging masses |
| Timing | Compatible with photogate timers or motion sensors |
| Levelling | Adjustable screw feet |
How It Is Used
The track is levelled with the screw feet and the trolley is pulled along it by a hanging mass over the pulley. Timing the run with photogates or a motion sensor gives the acceleration, which is compared as the hanging force or the trolley's load is changed, to check that F = ma.
