YOUNG’S MODULUS APPARATUS, ECONOMICAL
Useful for studying the relationship between load applied to a wire and resulting extension (Young’s modulus of elasticity). Can also be used for comparing elastic moduli of two different wires. Two thick sheet metal strips with clamping screws at the top for wires and metal hooks for the loading masses at the bottom, are mounted in a rectangular plate,parallel to each other. The plate has a scale 0-40 × 1mm along with a movable Vernier of L.C. 0.1mm, attached to one of the metal strips.Also included a ceiling clamp with a pair of wooden screws for suspending wires from the top and can be attached to a convenient overhead beam or door frame etc. supplied complete with a tension weight and a set of two wires – 1 each of brass 26 SWG and steel 24 SWG..
