A model for presenting the transformation of energy

MACHINE TRANSLATION (not authorised yet)

Model to demonstrate one type of force - centrifugal force. Large size of the model (height over 40 cm) and spectacularity of the show make the notion well preserved in students' memory. The model consists of a metal guide wrapped around the base in a huge loop (guide from the inside). The experience consists in releasing the ball at the very top of the guide and observing the track of its path - contrary to the force of gravity, the ball does not fall down when it reaches the top of the loop, but it overcomes it and leaves it "holding onto" the track, which proves the centrifugal force.
