Instructions for the setting up of the RMS pendulum in item 1:
- Insert the 45 cm rod into the "A" base and tighten it down. Clamp the second 45 cm rod to the first with the 90 degree clamp.
The horizontal rod should extend about half its length past the clamp. The 90 degree clamp is clamped near the top of the vertical rod.
- Place the rotoary motion sensor on the horizontal rod. The pulley should be mounted on the side of the RMS that says "Pasco Rotary Motion Sensor", and should be facing away from the supporting stand. Connect the RMS cables to the Pasco 750 interface (yellow DG1, black DG2) as described above.
- Remove the knurled pulley screw and store in a part bin drawer until after the lab is completed. Remove the pulley and flip it over an replace it.
Put a long brass screw (from the parts bin in 103B) into the pulley shaft an slightly tighten it.
- The 200 turn coil shown in the photograph at the right is not install before the lab time. The students will make the final assembly during the lab.
