I would like to have the PASCO 2-m track, motion detector, motion cart, fan for motion cart, block of wood to tilt track up. I want the motion detector to be on the left side of the track as the students see it. I will need computer set up. I would like to try this out as soon as possible on Monday afternoon. I need a tennis or racquetball also.

I would like to have the scooter and cart to stand on while I push across the lecture hall. I also need the air track with the fan cart and regular carts of different masses.

Weighing
( I would like to be able to hang 1 kg and 2 kg masses on the end of a spring scale in order to discuss how we calibrate forces.)

I want the two carts that you can stand on. I also would like a heavy bag that two students can toss back and forth. I also would like to have the PASCO 2-m track set up with two force probes, with clamps, rubber bands, string in order to demonstrate Newton's 3rd law with the force probes.

I want the PASCO set up with the 2-m track. I will want to demonstrate static and kinetic friction. This is basically L6.2-1 of PHYS 142W.

I need a rope or string with a ball at the end, so I can swing it around over my head to demonstrate circular motion.

I need the PASCO system. I want to be able to demonstrate work and energy. Look at Lab 8 in PHYS 142W for spring 2003. I want to do Investigations 2 and 3
