Force Tables
PHY 100 & 103
The purpose of this experiment is to demonstrate the method of adding vectors to form the resultant vector. The students will use the force table to calculate direction and magnitude of all the applied forces. The handout used is "Vector Addition".
Equipment
| Name | Location | Quantity |
| Force Tables | JE-105A-S12,18,24,30,36,42 | 1 per table |
| String | JE-105A-D69,70 | 3 per table |
| Protractor | JE-105A-D90 | 2 per table |
| Meter Stick - 1.00m | JE-105A-(105 Door), D98 | 1 per table |
| Ruler, SAFE-T | JE-105A-D90 | 1 per table |
Notes
The three strings should be attached to the force table.
Make sure that the room has plenty of paper and that each table has a SAFE-T ruler and a meter stick.
