Physics

Bi-Metal

Strip

A single-piece non-jointed

bimetallic strip with a wooden

handle.

When heated, the strip bends showing

that one metal has expanded more than

the other. The strip straightens again when cooled.

of Metal

Apparatus

Comprising strips of copper, iron, aluminium and

brass fixed to a wooden ring, this economical

apparatus demonstrates the varying speeds of

heat conduction along differing metal strips.

The outer ends of the metal strips have small

recesses for holding paraffin wax. By heating the

centre where the four strips meet, the wax can be

seen to melt at different times, governed by the

conductivity of the four different metals.

Expansion

Demonstration

Apparatus - Superior

An apparatus for demonstrating expansion

in metals, comprising a metal bar mounted

on a rod with an insulated handle and

a U-shaped metal gauge plate.

At room temperature, the metal bar fits inside the

jaws of the gauge plate. When the rod is heated,

it expands and no longer fits into the gauge

plates jaws.

Eisco type PH0378B

Ball and Ring

Expansion

Demonstration

Apparatus Set

An apparatus for demonstrating expansion in

metals, comprising a brass ball and a brass ring,

each mounted on a rod with an insulated handle.

At room temperature, the metal ball fits through

the ring. When the ball is heated, it expands and

no longer fits through the ring.

Ball diameter 19mm

Specific Heat Cylinder Sets

Sets of six metal cylinders for use in specific heat

experiments. The sets both contain one cylinder of copper,

lead, brass, zinc, iron and aluminium. One set has cylinders

of the same length, the other has cylinders of varying length.
