Poisson's Ratio of Rubber Apparatus
Product Code : EL-EAST-10415
Poisson's Ratio of Rubber Apparatus from Lab Exports demonstrates the relationship between longitudinal extension and lateral contraction in an elastic material, using a cycle rubber tube of about one metre in length fitted with a small pointer, mounted on a heavy cast iron stand. It is a simple, direct demonstration of Poisson's ratio for physics lab elasticity practicals. Lab Exports manufactures and exports this apparatus from India to schools, colleges and laboratories worldwide.
