Philip Harris Ticker Tape Timer
Philip Harris Ticker Tape Timer
Product code: A1008471
Product Description
For the measurement of velocity and acceleration, using timing marks made on a moving paper tape by a vibrating 'striker'. Designed to operate on a 12V a.c. supply and uses the mains frequency as its timing standard. The unit is housed in a moulded case (L)115mm x (W)60mm x (H)70mm, including mounting flanges. The top of the case carries a tape guide with carbon paper disc support and adjustable 'anvil' for the striker point.
All moving parts are fully enclosed and electrical connection is via 4mm sockets.
- Spare Ticker Tape is available to purchase separately: B8R07097
- Key Stage 3 Physics - Motion and Forces: Speed and the quantitative relationship between average speed, distance and time (speed = distance ÷ time).
- Key Stage 4 Physics - Forces and Motion: Forces as vectors. Speed of sound, estimating speeds and accelerations in everyday contexts. Interpreting quantitatively graphs of distance, time, and speed: Make and interpret measurements of distances, times, speeds and accelerations,and represent these in graphical form.
- Setting a limit on Power Supplies is useful to prevent overloading the Ticker Timer.
