MEC-02: Static Effects of Forces
Forces can be recognized by their effects. Thus, static forces can e.g. deform a body. It becomes apparent that the deformation is proportional to the force acting on the body when this force is not too great.

MEC-03: One Dimensional motion on Fletcher’s trolley
Fletcher’s trolley is the classical experiment apparatus for investigating linear translational motions. The trolley has a ball bearing, his axles are spring-mounted and completely immerged in order to prevent being overloaded. The wheels are designed in such a way that the trolley centers itself on the track and friction at the wheel flanks is avoided.

MEC-04: Two-dimensional motions on the air table
The air table makes possible recording of any two-dimensional motions of a slider for evaluation following the experiment. To achieve this, the slider is equipped with a recording device which registers the position of the slider on metallized recording paper every 20 ms.
The air table is supplied complete with two sliders. This means that this apparatus can also be used to investigate e.g. two –dimensional collisions.

MEC-05: Rotational Motions
The low-friction Plexiglas disk of the rotation model is set in uniform or uniformly accelerated motion for quantitative investigations of rotational motions. Forked light barriers are used to determine the angular velocity; their light beams are interrupted by a 10° flag mounted on the rotating disk. When two forked light barriers are used, measurement of time t can be started and stopped for any angle φ (optional possible).

MEC-06: Oscillations
The torsion pendulum after Pohl can be used to investigate free or forced harmonic rotational oscillations. An electromagnetic eddy current brake damps these oscillations to a greater or lesser extent, depending on the set current. The torsion pendulum is excited to forced oscillations by means of a motor-driven eccentric rod.
The computer-assisted CASSY measured-value recording system is ideal for recording and evaluating the oscillations of the torsion pendulum. The numerous evaluation options enable a comprehensive comparison between theory and experiment. Thus, for example, the recorded data can be displayed as path-time, velocity-time and acceleration-time diagrams or as a phase diagram (path-velocity diagram).

MEC-07: Wave Mechanics
A wave is formed when two coupled, oscillating systems sequentially execute oscillations of the same type. The wave can be excited e.g. as a transversal wave on an elastic string or as a longitudinal wave along a helical spring.
