Additional Info

• ID Code: A2-16
• Purpose: Illustrate the geometry of a saddle point
• Description:

  Large model shows equipotentials and lines of force. Small model shows force vectors and the "neutral point."

  This demonstration can also be useful in gravitation and electrostatics, or in other areas to discuss potential surfaces.

  Please handle with care, as these models are old and fragile.
