Inertia Table Moment
Model Number: MT-1282
The Inertia Table Moment from Micro Technologies is a mechanics laboratory apparatus designed for practical investigations involving moment of inertia, rotational oscillations and mass distribution. The MT-1282 features a suspended inertia-table arrangement supported within a rigid frame, enabling rotational behaviour and the moment of inertia of suitable bodies to be experimentally investigated.
Product Specification
The Inertia Table Moment from Micro Technologies is designed for practical physics and mechanics laboratory investigations involving rotational motion and moment of inertia. The apparatus provides a convenient experimental arrangement for studying how the distribution of mass influences the rotational behaviour of a body.
The MT-1282 incorporates an inertia table suspended within a rigid supporting structure. The suspended arrangement allows the table to undergo controlled angular oscillations when displaced from its equilibrium position and released.
The apparatus is particularly useful for studying the moment of inertia of bodies about a vertical axis. A suitable specimen can be positioned on the table, and changes in rotational oscillation can be observed and measured.
Moment of inertia is an important physical quantity describing the resistance of a body to angular acceleration about a particular axis. Its value depends not only on the total mass of the body but also on how that mass is distributed relative to the axis of rotation.
The MT-1282 allows this concept to be investigated experimentally. By comparing the oscillation characteristics of the unloaded table with those obtained after placing a suitable body on it, the rotational properties of the added specimen can be evaluated according to the applicable laboratory procedure.
The time period of rotational oscillation can be determined by measuring the time required for several complete oscillations. Taking multiple oscillations and calculating an average period helps improve consistency compared with timing only a single oscillation.
The apparatus is also useful for demonstrating the effect of mass distribution on rotational inertia. When equivalent masses are positioned at different distances from the rotational axis, changes in the system's oscillatory behaviour can be investigated.
Its suspended-table configuration provides a practical connection between theoretical concepts of rotational dynamics and observable mechanical motion. This makes the apparatus useful for understanding the relationship between mass, radius, angular motion and moment of inertia.
The rigid vertical supporting frame maintains the suspension arrangement while providing sufficient clearance for the inertia table to move during experimental observations. The base provides stability during routine laboratory use.
The apparatus can be used alongside suitable masses, geometrical bodies, timing devices and measuring instruments to perform quantitative rotational dynamics experiments according to the required laboratory method.
The MT-1282 can complement bifilar pendulums, torsional pendulums, flywheel apparatus and other mechanics equipment for broader investigations involving rotational motion, oscillation and inertia.
Manufactured and supplied by Micro Technologies, the Inertia Table Moment is suitable for physics laboratories, mechanics laboratories, engineering laboratories, research facilities and other scientific applications involving rotational dynamics.

FAQs
What is the Inertia Table Moment used for?
The apparatus is used for practical investigations involving moment of inertia, rotational oscillations, time period and the effect of mass distribution on rotational motion.
What is the Micro Technologies model number?
The Micro Technologies model number is MT-1282.
What is moment of inertia?
Moment of inertia is a measure of a body's resistance to angular acceleration about a specified axis and depends on both its mass and the distribution of that mass relative to the axis.
Can the apparatus determine moment of inertia experimentally?
Yes. Using appropriate observations of rotational oscillation and the required experimental calculations, the apparatus can be used to investigate the moment of inertia of suitable test bodies.
Can different objects be placed on the inertia table?
Suitable laboratory specimens or bodies can be positioned on the table according to the experimental method to investigate their effect on the system's rotational behaviour.
Can the effect of mass distribution be demonstrated?
Yes. Changing the position of suitable masses relative to the rotational axis can demonstrate how mass distribution affects moment of inertia.
Can the time period of oscillation be measured?
Yes. The time taken for multiple rotational oscillations can be measured and divided by the number of oscillations to obtain an average time period.
What type of motion does the table perform?
The suspended table undergoes angular or rotational oscillatory motion about its equilibrium position during suitable experiments.
Does the Inertia Table Moment require electricity?
No. The MT-1282 is primarily a mechanical laboratory apparatus and does not require electrical power for conventional experiments.
