Jlab Export is a leading Free Fall Apparatus Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Free Fall Apparatus (code EL-MI-4863) is a physics apparatus used to determine g, the acceleration due to gravity, by measuring the time a steel ball takes to fall through a pre-determined distance, in school and college physics labs. It is made by Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) at its works in Ambala, India.

How Does It Compare with Other JLab Free Fall Apparatus?
| Model | Listed purpose | Other listed details |
|---|---|---|
| This apparatus (EL-MI-4863) | Finding g by timing a steel ball over a pre-determined distance | Release and timer details confirmed in the quotation |
| Free Fall Apparatus (school lab range) | Finding g from the fall of a heavy steel ball | Electromagnet release in a moulded plastic case; packed with a digital timer and accessories |
| Free Fall Apparatus on Stand JLab | Showing that objects of different weights fall together in a vacuum | Acrylic tube with a stopcock for a vacuum pump, on a cast iron tripod base |
What Is the Free Fall Apparatus Used For?
A ball dropped from rest falls a distance equal to half of g multiplied by the square of the fall time, so g can be worked out as twice the distance divided by the time squared. Students time the ball over the set distance, repeat the drop and average the results; where the drop height can be varied, plotting distance against time squared gives g as twice the slope of the line. The experiment fits the class 11 physics chapter “Motion in a Straight Line” and first-year college mechanics, and the dense steel ball keeps air resistance small over a short drop.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the free fall apparatus measure?
The acceleration due to gravity, g. It does this by timing a steel ball as it falls through a pre-determined distance.
Is a timer included?
The listing does not say. Ask JLab to confirm the release and timing arrangement in the quotation; stop clocks are also available as separate items.
Who manufactures this free fall apparatus?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab), at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India. JLab quotes for it directly as the manufacturer.
OEM Manufacturer
JLab is the trading name of Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd, a physics lab equipment manufacturer in India, incorporated in 2017 and based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana. The apparatus is built in JLab’s own works rather than bought from a trader, so schools, colleges, dealers and importers buy factory-direct and repeat orders are handled by the maker. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region — for example Mexico in North America, Sri Lanka in South Asia, Saudi Arabia in the Middle East, Angola in Central Africa and Serbia in Southern Europe.
