Magnetic Mass Hook
Add fixed mass positions to gravity well experiments
The Magnetic Mass Hook is a classroom accessory designed to provide a secure, removable attachment point for masses in gravity well experiments. It uses a magnetic base and steel disc to create a fixed position for hanging masses without puncturing or altering the surface.
Placed beneath the gravity well sheet and aligned with the included steel disc, the hook holds masses in position for consistent, repeatable investigations. It can also be used on steel surfaces for general hanging applications, making it a simple, flexible addition to mechanics setups.
Why Teachers Love the Magnetic Mass Hook
-
Non-invasive setup: Holds masses in place without damaging the gravity well surface
-
Secure positioning: Creates a fixed, repeatable location for consistent results
-
Designed for gravity wells: Ideal for adding single or multiple mass points
-
Versatile use: Also works as a general-purpose magnetic hook on steel surfaces
Product Details
The Magnetic Mass Hook provides a simple, non-invasive way to add fixed mass positions in gravity well experiments. Using a magnetic base and steel disc, it creates a secure attachment point beneath the surface—allowing students to investigate gravitational effects without altering or damaging the material.
