Specific Gravity Metal Cylinder Set, Set of four different metal cylinders., Each

Details

This 4-piece set of metal cylinders features Aluminum, Zinc, Copper, and Steel. Each cylinder measures 1.5 inches (38mm) in length and 0.4 inches (10mm) in diameter. Ideal for physics classrooms, these density metals have a wide range of educational applications suitable for all grade levels, including investigations into density, specific heat, and specific gravity. The set includes a comprehensive instruction manual that provides background information on density, specific gravity, and specific heat, as well as inquiry-based student activities with worksheet templates. Please note that due to the nature of raw metals, some oxidation or corrosion may occur over time, particularly in humid environments or during storage. To restore their appearance, simply remove any oxidation by scuffing it off. Designed for educational use, these density metals are not fabricated using ultra-high precision machining; therefore, expect tolerances within a +/- 5% range of the stated dimensions (although they are generally much tighter). The Eisco Labs Density Investigation series aims to help students understand mass, explore the relationships between mass, volume, and density, and introduce them to key concepts in physics and chemistry.
