Hero Engine

Product Code : SLE/PHY/189

This is a model of a steam engine invented by Hero of Alexandria in about 60 AD. 
Hero's engine illustrates transformations of energy and aspects of Newton's laws of motion. 
It represents an early example of a machine that will transform thermal energy into kinetic energy. 
The engine operates similarly to a rocket engine. 
The thermal energy supplied by the bunsen burner (not supplied) is transformed into kinetic energy in the steam jets. 
These jets possess momentum, and by Newton's third law ('action and reaction are equal and opposite'), give backward momentum and hence backward force to the nozzles from which they emerge. 
These forces create a turning movement about the longitudinal axis of the glassware and hence the glass apparatus rotates.

Hooke’s Law Apparatus

Product Code : SLE/PHY/190

This complete apparatus has a 150mm adjustable mirror scale to prevent parallax error and is marked in millimetres and mounted on a sturdy 300mm rod.
Attached to the rod is a hook supporting a coiled spring with a mass hanger and indicator. 
The apparatus is mounted on a wooden base.
To demonstrate that the relationship between the extension on a spring is proportional to the load applied to it. 
Supplied complete with a 250g slotted weight set and 3 springs. 

Hope’s Law Apparatus

Product Code : SLE/PHY/191

Designed to show that water has a maximum density at 4°C. 
In winter, ponds and lakes are cooled from above. 
The water above continues to cool until it freezes, then the ice provides an insulating layer that keeps the denser water beneath from cooliing as quickly. 
The comparatively warm layer on the bottom enables aquatic life to survive. 
Were water not to have its maximum density at a temperature above its freezing point, then ponds and lakes would freeze throughout and, because heat conduction between air and ice is such a slow process, possibly fail to thaw even during the summer months.
Convection then occurs throughout until a dense layer of water at 4°C forms on the bottom.
