AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A centrifugal device for visualizing centrifugal forces. For educational purposes. By setting the turntable in motion, the axis is driven via a cord to which four metal strips are attached. Through the rotating motion a centrifugal force is created that pushes the metal strips outward. This pressure causes the lower connection of the brass strips to be drawn up on the vertical shaft. The diameter of the metal strips thus increases.

Scientific Instruments for enthusiasts of an industrial or cabinet-of-curiosities interior.
