Newton’s First Law of Motion

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. Teachers use it for quick, visible demonstrations in school physics labs, college classes and STEM sessions. Its maker, Science Lab Supplies, produces it at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and deals directly with schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.

Specifications

The apparatus gives students a direct look at inertia: a quick, controlled force is applied and they see whether an object stays at rest, keeps moving or changes its motion. Model type, materials, accessories and dimensions are not fixed on this listing and are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications and Experiments for the Newton’s First Law Apparatus

The teacher applies a sudden, controlled force and the class sees 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.
• Everyday examples such as passengers lurching when a bus starts or stops.
• STEM prediction-and-observation activities.

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 a school science kit supplier in India such as 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. Begin with the contact page or the enquiry cart; bid-based buyers will find the process on 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?
The listing does not fix the components. Send an enquiry through the contact page and the quotation will name each part of the version offered.

Is Science Lab Supplies a manufacturer?
Yes, a science kit manufacturer in India. This apparatus is made at the company's Saha, Ambala factory, and buyers get their quotation from the factory 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.
