Ball & Ring Apparatus

Description

The Ball & Ring Apparatus is a classic scientific tool used to demonstrate the concept of thermal expansion in metals. The apparatus consists of a metal ball and ring, both made of the same material. At room temperature, the ball fits perfectly through the ring, but when heated, the ball expands and can no longer pass through the ring, visually illustrating how materials expand when exposed to heat.

Key Features:

• Durable metal construction for accurate and repeatable demonstrations.
• Easy-to-use and safe design suitable for classroom or laboratory settings.
• Ideal for teaching thermal expansion and heat-related concepts.

Applications:

• Educational tool for physics and material science experiments.
• Demonstrates thermal expansion properties in a simple, engaging way.
