The Law of Conservation of Energy says that an object with a specific potential energy, when falling will convert that energy to kinetic energy. The purpose of this lab was to prove that this occurs.

A mass hanger was attached to the string and ran over a seemingly frictionless pulley system. ... When the hanger was dropped, the shaft rotated, causing the horizontal cross bar to go into rotation about the vertical shaft. The linear kinetic energy from...
