Physics Educational Materials
Avantor offers a complete catalog of instruments and tools useful for demonstrating key, basic concepts of physics that are applicable to everyday life both in and out of the laboratory. Demonstrate core ideas such as acceleration down a plane, friction, potential and kinetic energy, electrical conductivity, magnetic fields, wavelengths and velocity of sound, and more. Durable educational materials are designed for heavy use with consistent levels of handling, and all models are easy to use.
Thermogenerator, peltier element
Supplier: CORNELSEN EXPERIMENTA
72 series-connected semiconductor elements, mounted between two ceramic plates which in turn are attached to heat-conducting metal. If the metals are exposed to different temperatures, a voltage arises, sufficient to drive, for example, a slightly rotating motor. The thermogenerator can also be run in the other direction, ie. a voltage is connected and a temperature difference is obtained across the metal legs.

Plate capacitor
Supplier: PHYWE
Precision capacitor for electrostatic tests e.g. examination of the relationship between charge, voltage and capacitance. Measurement of the dielectric constant and the electrostatic induction constant. The permanently mounted plate is well insulated while the movable plate is mounted directly in the stand. The distance between the capacitor plates can be adjusted with an accuracy of 0.1 mm. Distance between plates 0 to 70 mm.

Arrow board with falling target
Supplier: PHYWE
Apparatus for demonstrating the independence of the components of a composite motion. A force is exerted against an arrow, in the direction of a vertically set target, by means of a wire connected to an elastic band. When the arrow is released, the target is released at the same time. The arrow always hits the free-falling target, regardless of the position from which the arrow is released. Supplied with wooden plate with mounted strap, spring lock for attaching the target, arrow with string (approx. 275 cm) and target.

Magnetic field, force
Supplier: PHYWE
Used in studies of the power action of a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field. The field can e.g. obtained from U-magnet 765-0444. With two bands, the force action between these at different current directions can be investigated. Each band is provided at both ends with a 4 mm banana plug.
