Product Overview
The Coulomb Apparatus provides a complete setup for exploring electrostatic and mechanical forces through simple, measurable parameters such as mass, length, and angle. Designed for physics classrooms and laboratory teaching, it enables students to investigate charging by induction, observe electrostatic attraction and repulsion, and analyze equilibrium conditions.
This system also supports experimental determination of Newtonian gravitational force and Coulomb’s electric force, as well as quantitative charge measurements on the conductive spheres.
