Dynamics Systems

 

PASCO Dynamics Track Systems are perfect for investigating a wide range of concepts in physics, including Newton's Laws, collisions, velocity and acceleration.

  • Find velocity as a function of time as a cart goes down an incline.
  • Determine the acceleration of a cart as it is pulled by a weight hung over a pulley.

PASCO Dynamics Systems have been designed to easily integrate sensors for measuring forces, position, velocity and acceleration.

Choose the cart and track type that best meets your need.

Carts are available in either aluminum (Classic Carts) or polycarbonate plastic (PAScars). Each system below includes two carts.

Tracks are extruded aluminum (available in two lengths: 1.2 meter and 2.2 meter), or the new rigid plastic PAStrack, which comes in sets of 2 sections, each 50 cm long. Both these track types are designed with the built-in T-slots for easy attachment of accessories.

For those on a very tight budget, consider the economy Force & Motion track. Less rigid and without the built-in T-slots, it can still be used with Motion Sensors.
