Product Summary
This accessory allows the Smart Cart to be suspended from a rod stand. Use the Smart Cart’s force sensor to measure the force of an oscillating spring and mass. The Smart Cart can be mounted directly to a vertical rod or to a horizontal cross-rod.

Advanced Placement / Physics
Students use the Smart Cart force sensor to measure the buoyant force on a metal cylinder lowered into a fluid and then determine the relationship between the buoyant force on a submerged object and a) its volume and b) the weight...
Advanced Placement / Physics
Students use a Smart Cart to determine the physical properties of a vertical mass and spring system that affect its period of oscillation, and then use their data to support a mathematical model relating period, mass, and spring...
College • High School / Physics
Demonstrate two ways of determining the buoyant force on a submerged object: (1) Buoyant Force = Weight – Apparent Weight; (2) Buoyant Force = Weight of the Displaced Fluid
