Centre of Gravity Apparatus - Ambala Science Lab
The Centre of Gravity Apparatus by Ambala Science Lab is a precision educational instrument designed for practical demonstration of centre of gravity, equilibrium, balance, stability, and distribution of mass. It is widely used in school laboratories, college physics labs, STEM classrooms, and teacher demonstration sessions.
Product Overview
This apparatus is ideal for students, teachers, and laboratories. It helps explain how the weight of a body appears to act through a single point called the centre of gravity through direct observation and practical learning.
Product Description
The Centre of Gravity Apparatus is designed for concept-based teaching and hands-on experiments. It helps learners understand the position of the centre of gravity in regular and irregular bodies, the effect of shape on balance, and the conditions required for stable equilibrium in a clear, measurable, and repeatable manner.
Its classroom-friendly design supports practical demonstrations, science exhibitions, and regular academic use. The apparatus enables students to verify theoretical principles of mechanics by observing how objects behave when suspended, balanced, or positioned in different orientations.
