Product Description

Newtons Cradle Equipment 
Newtons Cradle Equipment consists of several metal balls (usually 5 or 6 ) suspended from a rack by wires, such that they line up and are almost in contact when in a resting position. There are two wires attached to each ball to keep the pendulum motion in one plane. Note: Although the balls look like they are touching, they are really slightly apart (less than the width of a human hair) pull up one ball when an end ball (ball #1) is pulled up and let go, it swings down as a pendulum and hits the next ball. The energy and momentum from that ball is transmitted through the three balls at rest to the ball on the other end.
