Using the Disk and Ring
For rotational inertia experiments, wrap a string at-
tached to a mass around the 3-step Pulley included with
the Rotary Motion Sensor. Hang the mass over the Su-
per Pulley to accelerate the apparatus.
Perform a conservation of angular momentum experi-
ment by dropping the ring onto the rotating disk.
