Scales - Push and Pull Spring (500g Green)

The "Scales - Push and Pull Spring (500g Green)" is a versatile and educational tool, perfect for classroom environments where understanding weight and force is a part of the curriculum. This spring scale is dual-calibrated in grams and Newtons, allowing students to measure objects up to 500g and to explore concepts of force concurrently.

Interactive and Customisable

Featuring a clear, flat area on its rod, this scale offers a unique interactive element where students can use a dry wipe marker to mark their own scales directly on the device. This enhances learning by allowing for custom annotations and calculations. At the end of the scale, a hook provides a convenient point for attaching objects to be weighed or measured, facilitating a variety of experiments.

Spring scales are excellent for introducing students to alternative methods of weighing and measuring, differing from the more commonly seen digital or balance scales. This hands-on approach helps students visualise the effects of gravity and tension, making abstract concepts more tangible.

Aligned with the Australian Curriculum, this tool aids in teaching important aspects of weight measurement and the identification of different measurement units. Its use in educational settings stimulates curiosity and fosters a deeper understanding of the fundamental principles of physics and mathematics.

The complete package includes:

• 1x Push and Pull Spring Scale (500g) in vibrant green, designed for easy visibility and use in busy classroom settings.

Dimensions: The scale measures L 290mm x W 23mm, compact enough for easy storage yet robust enough for frequent educational use.
