Mass, Cast Alloy, 1000g
Product Code : EL-B-10707
Quick answer: The Mass, Cast Alloy, 1000g is a small-format set of nine 100 g cast alloy masses with a 100 g hanger, giving loads from 100 g to 1 kg in 100 g steps. It is used for spring extension, pulley and moment experiments in physics teaching. Lab Exports manufactures it in Delhi for schools, colleges and teaching laboratories.

How the 1000 g mass set is used
Each 100 g step adds a weight of about 0.98 N (W = mg, with g = 9.81 m/s^2), so the set loads a spring or cord from roughly 1 N with the hanger alone up to about 9.8 N with all nine masses in place. That range suits the stiffer springs and pulley blocks used in secondary and college mechanics.
- Suspend the 100 g hanger from the spring, pulley cord or lever arm under test.
- Add the 100 g masses one by one, taking a reading after each addition.
- Remove the masses in reverse order and repeat the readings to check for any permanent stretch.
- Tabulate the load in newtons against the measured extension or effort.
With a pulley system, the same set measures the effort needed to raise a known load, from which the mechanical advantage is found as load divided by effort.
Key features
- Nine 100 g masses plus a 100 g hanger, 1000 g in total
- Loads in equal 100 g steps of about 1 N each
- Cast alloy construction for everyday class handling
- Small format that stores compactly
- Hanger included, so the set is ready to hang from a spring or cord
