| Specifications: Linear Air Track length: 200 cm. A frictionless system to explore kinematics. The most fundamental laws of physics states that a moving object will continue forever at a constant velocity unless it is acted on by an external force. With our near frictionless linear motion track, this incredible observation is made easy to understand. An air track glider provides for highly accurate investigations into the laws of motion. Students can investigate inelastic collisions, impulse and change in momentum, conservation of momentum, conservation of energy and more in our 2 m long track. Because the frictional forces are negligible the data derived
will always be accurate.
