Description:
Maxwell'S Wheel
Specification:
Maxwell'S Wheel -Investigate conservation of mechanical energy and momentum. Our wheel
rolls to the top by means of string wound on its axle, then turns
potential energy into kinetic and rolls back down. At the bottom,
kinetic energy is converted into potential and the wheel rolls upward
again. In an ideal world this would continue forever, but friction
eventually sets in and the wheel will stop.
