Product Code : SCL-PLE-10475
The Free Fall in Liquids Apparatus from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is a physics laboratory setup supplied to schools, colleges and STEM classrooms across West Africa – Benin, Togo and Burkina Faso – and other export markets for demonstrating motion through liquids, viscous drag, terminal velocity, and resistance in fluids.
Quick answer: A free fall in liquids apparatus lets students observe and time a falling ball or test body moving through a transparent liquid column to study viscous drag, terminal velocity, and Stokes’ law relationships.

Studying Viscosity and Terminal Velocity with Falling-Body Motion
As a test body falls through a viscous liquid, it accelerates until drag force balances gravity, reaching a constant terminal velocity that can be timed and used to calculate the liquid’s viscosity via Stokes’ law. This apparatus complements other fluid mechanics equipment in a physics lab: for buoyancy-related demonstrations, see the Buoyancy Apparatus, and for a Bernoulli’s-principle demonstration of pressure and flow, see the Venturi Tube.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the free fall in liquids apparatus demonstrate?
A: It demonstrates motion through a viscous liquid, showing how drag force and terminal velocity develop as a test body falls, which relates to Stokes’ law.
Q: What liquids can be used with this apparatus?
A: A range of transparent liquids of varying viscosity can be used depending on the experiment; confirm suitable liquids and safety handling with Lab Glassware Manufacturer before use.
Q: Is this apparatus suitable for school and college physics labs?
A: Yes, it is designed for school physics labs, college laboratories, STEM classrooms, and training institutes studying fluid mechanics and viscous drag.
