Newton’s 2nd Law Model Apparatus
Product Code : SCL-SK-12146
Newton’s 2nd Law Model Apparatus (SKU SCL-SK-12146) is a physics teaching apparatus for showing how the acceleration of a body changes with the applied force and with its mass, the relationship written as F = ma. It suits school physics labs, college mechanics practicals and STEM investigations. Manufacturing takes place at the Science Lab Supplies unit, Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, which quotes schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors directly.
Specifications
The table covers every specification of the F = ma apparatus. In short, a moving body accelerates under a known pulling force, so students can vary the force or add mass and compare the motion; the track, trolley, pulley, mass set and timing method are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications and Experiments for the Newton’s 2nd Law Apparatus
Students can add mass or change the pulling force, release the body without pushing it, time its motion over a measured distance, and calculate acceleration. Repeating with different loads lets them test F = ma for themselves, in line with laws-of-motion chapters in school and college physics.
- Class 9 and Class 11 physics (NCERT): Newton’s second law of motion.
- Acceleration against applied force at constant mass, the trolley-and-hanging-mass arrangement that can also be built with a Wooden Dynamics Trolley and a Fixed Pulley.
- Acceleration against mass at constant force.
- Discussing friction as a source of error in first-year college mechanics.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Newton’s 2nd Law Model Apparatus is supplied as one set as described above. Whether a track, trolley, pulley, cord, slotted masses, timer or scale is packed with it depends on the version offered, and the quotation lists each component so you can see how acceleration will be measured.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Ask for a price on one set or on enough sets for each practical group. The quotation includes packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and the first and third law models or other STEM science kits in India can be added to it.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Quotations for the second-law set start on the contact page; schools can also assemble a list in the enquiry cart or follow the lab tender page when buying through a tender.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Newton’s second law state?
The acceleration of a body is proportional to the net force on it and inversely proportional to its mass, written F = ma. The apparatus lets students test both parts of the law.
Can students calculate acceleration with it?
Yes, where the supplied setup includes a way to measure distance and time. The quotation states the timing method, for example whether a timer is part of the set.
Is Science Lab Supplies the maker of this apparatus?
Yes. This second-law apparatus is built at the Science Lab Supplies factory in Saha, Ambala, India, and the quotation you receive is issued by the manufacturer itself, not by a trading intermediary.
Which variables can students change?
Students can change the pulling force at constant mass, or the mass at constant force, then compare the accelerations to see that acceleration rises with force and falls as mass increases.
