Product Code : SCL-SK-12147
Newton’s First Law of Motion (SKU SCL-SK-12147) is a physics teaching apparatus for demonstrating inertia: a body stays at rest, or keeps moving uniformly, unless an external force acts on it. It suits quick, visible demonstrations in school physics labs, college classes and STEM sessions. Science Lab Supplies is both maker and seller: the apparatus is manufactured at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and supplied from there to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
In the table you will find each specification of the inertia apparatus. In short, a quick, controlled force is applied and students see whether an object stays at rest, keeps moving or changes its motion; model type, materials, accessories and dimensions are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications and Experiments for the Newton’s First Law Apparatus
When a sudden, controlled force is applied, the class can see an object resist the change, much like the familiar card-and-coin demonstration. It suits the opening lesson on laws of motion in school physics, where inertia is introduced before force and acceleration, and revision in college mechanics.
- Class 9 physics (NCERT): force and laws of motion, inertia of rest and of motion.
- Class 11 physics: Newton’s first law as the basis of the laws of motion, extended with a Wooden Dynamics Trolley that keeps rolling on its low-friction wheels after a push.
- Friction as the external force that slows a sliding body, shown with the 100 g Pair of Wooden Friction Blocks with Hooks.
- Everyday examples such as passengers lurching when a bus starts or stops.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Newton’s First Law of Motion apparatus is supplied as one demonstration set as described above. Its parts, which may include an inertia disc, card and coin, trolley, track or base depending on the version, are listed item by item on the quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A quotation can cover a single apparatus or a quantity for several schools under one order. It lists packing, delivery time and price for the number requested, and as a school science kit supplier in India, Science Lab Supplies can add the second and third law apparatus alongside.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Oman. An inertia-apparatus enquiry can be sent from the contact page, combined with other items in the enquiry cart, or prepared for a bid using the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Newton’s first law state?
An object remains at rest, or continues in uniform motion in a straight line, unless an external force acts on it. This tendency to resist change is called inertia.
Which components come with the apparatus?
Each part of the version offered is named on the quotation. Send an enquiry through the contact page, and say which inertia demonstrations you plan to run so the reply can address them.
Is Science Lab Supplies a manufacturer?
Yes. This inertia apparatus is made at the company’s Saha, Ambala factory in India, and buyers get their quotation from the factory itself rather than through a trader.
How should the demonstration be done safely?
Under teacher supervision. Do not flick parts toward people or release trolleys from table edges, and take cracked, sharp or unstable pieces out of use.
