3D model description

Force of Gravity Fg Plumb Bob (A Physics Educational Visual Tool)

As a physics and engineering teacher, I have found that my students benefit from visuals while explaining or applying concepts. What better way to display this than through 3D printing!

It can be used a plumb bob in labs or attached to a ramp for displaying the force of gravity vector via twine. It pairs with the "Normal Force Finder" found on my products page to show the interaction of Normal Force and Fg! You could even add it to a protractor as a way to quantitatively determine components of the vector.

BTW...You can print this at 50% scale and turn it into a cool little key chain or give one to each student!
