Principle
A disc, which can unroll with its axis on two cords, moves in the gravitational field. Potential energy, energy of translation and energy of rotation are converted into one another and are determined as a function of time.
Tasks
The moment of inertia of the Maxwell disc is determined. Using the Maxwell disc,
1.the potential energy,
2.the energy of translation,
3.the energy of rotation,
are determined as a function of time.
What you can learn about
•Maxwell disc
•Energy of translation
•Energy of rotation
•Potential energy
•Moment of inertia
•Angular velocity
•Angular acceleration
•Instantaneous velocity
•Gyroscope
