Friction Block With Hook

Friction Block With Hook

E8R08101

Product code: E8R08101

The friction cube provides four surfaces for exploration into the force of friction. Each side of the 2" cube provides a surface (wood, paper, vinyl, sandpaper) with a different coefficient of friction. By pulling the cube by the attached hook, one can both qualitatively and quantitatively demonstrate the properties of static and kinetic friction.

  • Key Stage 3 Physics - Motion and Forces: Forces: associated with deforming objects; stretching and squashing – springs; with rubbing and friction between surfaces, with pushing things out of the way; resistance to motion of air and water.
  • Key Stage 4 Physics - Forces and Motion: Identify forces between solid objects which stretch, compress, bend, and turn, or affect movement. Explain that frictional forces affect movement and depend on the properties of the surfaces involved.
