Working Principle
The “G” BY Free Fall Apparatus operates on the principle of free fall. A steel sphere is initially held at the top by an electromagnet. When the magnet is deactivated, the sphere is released and falls freely under gravity. The digital timer starts automatically as the sphere is released and stops when it contacts the bottom plate, ensuring accurate timing. The fall height is measured using the column’s scale, and with the measured time, the acceleration due to gravity (g) can be precisely calculated.
