The end pieces of the Rotating Beam must be removed in order to slide the carriages onto the Rotating Beam. Next, with the ruled side of the Rotating Beam facing you, attach the Counterbalance Carriage on the left, and attach the Sliding Carriage...

For simple experiments, you can simply use your hand. For more complex experiments, you can use the Ultra Pulley (included with the CFA) and a string. The Ultra Pulley mounts on the preinstalled Ultra Pulley Bracket on the left side of the frame of t...

How are your Go!Temps stored? It is possible to damage a Go!Temp by winding the cable around the handle of the device. If the cord is wound tightly, it can pull the wires out of the strain relief and cause the Go!Temp to malfunction. This type...

The spring constant of the Vernier Dynamic Carts with plunger is somewhere between 3.5 and 4.2 N/cm. The spring constant on the plunger of a Sensor Cart seems to be about 2.6 to 2.8 N/cm. Ironically, everything you need to measure the spring cons...

If a Current Probe (DCP-BTA) was subjected to more than 0.6A, it will burn out a resistor inside the sensor. This can happen when students don't get the value they want, so they just keep increasing the current on a power supply. Typically a blown...

Yes. We have a project from Dave's garage that lets you connect one Vernier sensor to Pachube. We call it VS2PB. Details on the application are below. It is available on request by sending a message to pachube@vernier.com. Part I. Introduction...
