Reliant Lab Wheel and Axle Simple Form Comprising two polished wooden wheels

• Wheels Material : Wooden
• Grooves : 7.5 cm
• Wheel Diameter : 12 cm

Features

• Polished Wooden Construction: Features two high quality, polished wooden wheels of distinct diameters, providing a smooth surface for string winding and aesthetic durability.
• Common Steel Axle: Both wheels are fixed to a single central shaft, ensuring they rotate together at the same angular velocity to demonstrate torque transfer.
• Integrated String Grooves: Each wheel contains a deep peripheral groove to prevent strings from slipping during the lifting of loads.
• Stable Mounting Frame: Supplied with a robust, heavy duty base or wall mounting bracket that keeps the apparatus steady during weight application.

Applications

• Demonstration of Simple Machines: Serves as a primary visual aid for teaching how a wheel and axle function to multiply force or distance.
• Calculating Mechanical Advantage: Used by students to calculate the ratio of the load lifted to the effort applied under equilibrium conditions.
• Velocity Ratio Study: Helps students understand how the distance moved by the effort relates to the distance moved by the load.
• Engineering Foundation: Provides a practical foundation for understanding gears, pulleys, and more complex rotational machinery in vocational training.
