Name: Friction Block
Brand: PASCO
SKU: ME-9807
Price: 29.0 USD

The sliding friction block does work on the moving Smart Cart and stops it quickly. The graph above shows the cart velocity and applied friction stopping force vs. the distance travelled by the cart and block. The area under the Force vs. Distance curve gives the work done, and the loss of kinetic energy can be calculated from the velocity.

Replacement friction block for the Introductory Dynamics Systems (ME-9429A, ME-9452).

Product Summary

The wooden Friction Block has felt on two sides, so the frictional coefficients for felt or wood can be measured. It also fits into the dynamics cart tray so the cart can run on its wheels, or it can be turned upside down to run on the Friction Block without changing the mass.
