Force table

Force table with acquisition info.
More yellow paint!

Some equipment just keeps on working, year after year. This force table – an apparatus used to illustrate static equilibrium and vectors in a way that’s loads more fun than Excel, but the students still have to learn Excel – was purchased in February of 1957 for the not-insignificant sum of $87.50.

Today’s dollars: $935.89.
