Energy Meter

The energy meter provides an all-in-one solution to teaching specific heat capacity. With real-time read out of voltage, current, time and temperature, all measurement parameters are provided on the display screen for students to calculate specific heat capacity from first principles. Energy and charge measurements are also displayed, in watt-hours and amp-hours respectively. Intended for use with calorimeter blocks, a detachable probe is provided for fast response temperature measurements. With extended voltage range, the energy of lower voltage devices can be recorded, allowing it to be used for measuring efficiency of energy transfer, and measuring power in electronic circuits. As the frequency of the generator is varied the first harmonic can be found and then all the others up to the 7th or 8th. The string length can be easily varied if required by moving the end peg and the main arm can be detached if required to facilitate storage.
