Description

Experiment P1.4.6.1 is used to examine the conservation of energy at the Maxwell’s wheel. During the experiment potential energy Epot is transformed to kinetic energy Ekin due a translational motion (Etrans) and a rotational motion (Erot).
For different heights times and velocities are measured. From the data one can determine the inertia of the Maxwell’s wheel. With a known inertia, one can calculate the gravitational acceleration.
