Platform Adapter Assembly
1. Attach the square nut (supplied with the
Rotational Inertia Accessory) to the platform
adapter.
2. Position the platform adapter at the desired radius
as shown in Figure 1.
3. Grip the knurled edge of the platform adapter and
tighten.
The rotating disk can be mounted in a variety of
positions using any of the four holes on the rotation
disk.
Figure 1: Rotational Inertia Accessory Including Platform Adapter Assembly
• Two “D” holes exist on the edge of the disk,
located at 180½ from one another.
• One “D” hole is located at the center on the top
surface (the surface with the metal ring channel
and the PASCO label) of the disk.
• One hole is located at the center on the bottom
surface of the disk and is actually the inner race of
a bearing. This enables the rotational disk to rotate
(in either direction) in addition to other rotating
motions applied to your experiment setup.
