Linear Air Track System

A frictionless system to explore kinematics. The most fundamental law 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 observation is made easy to understand. The Air Track can be used to obtain an accurate investigation of the laws of motion. Students can discover inelastic collisions, impulse and change in momentum, conservation of momentum, conservation of energy and more in our two meters long track. Because the frictional forces are negligible, the data derived will always be accurate.
