Pendulum Raiyan Hassan SPH3U September 20‚ 2011 Introduction A pendulum is a device which consists of a mass attached to a string from a frictionless pivot which allows it to swing back and forth. In this experiment‚ the time it takes for a pendulum to go through a period is going to be measured. The time it takes for a pendulum to go through one period can depend on factors such as the length of the string‚ mass‚ or the degree in which the pendulum is released from (amplitude). In this

“To what extent does the length of the string affect the period of a simple pendulum?” IBDP PHYSICS Internal Assessment – The Simple Pendulum 9 INTRODUCTION The original aim for this invesigation was to “investigate the simple pendulum”. There are many variables one could look into‚ such as displacement‚ angle‚ damping‚ mass of the bob etc. The most interesting variable‚ however‚ is the length of the swinging pendulum. The relationship between the length and the time for one swing (the period)

Introduction: Aim: To find the relationship between the length of a simple pendulum and the period of oscillation. Research question: How does the string length of the pendulum affect the period of oscillation? Prediction: The longer the string‚ the longer it will take to make one complete oscillation. Variables: Independent variable: Length (L). Dependent variable: Period of oscillation (T). Controlled variable: Mass of the plasticine. Tools & Materials: Stopwatch. Ruler. String. Plasticine

One Title: Determination of the acceleration due to gravity with a simple pendulum Introduction and Theory: A simple pendulum performs simple harmonic motion‚ i.e. its periodic motion is defined by an acceleration that is proportional to its displacement and directed towards the centre of motion. It can be shown that the period T of the swinging pendulum is proportional to the square root of the length l of the pendulum: T2= (4π2l)/g with T the period in seconds‚ l the length in meters

Is gravity always 9.8m/s2?? INTRODUCTION: A simple pendulum consists of a mass m swinging back and forth along a circular arc at the end of a string of negligible mass. A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. Gravity is the pull that two bodies of mass exert on one another. There are several simple experiments that will allow you to calculate the acceleration due to gravity of a falling object. A simple pendulum can determine this acceleration. The only variables

Introduction In this lab‚ the density of 20 glass beads were determined using two different methods and the results were compared to see how close the values were to each other. In first method the volume of each individual bead was measured using the diameter of each bead‚ along with the mass. In the second method the beads we treated as a whole unit. The total mass was measured and volume was measured based on the amount of water that was displaced in a graduated cylinder. Then‚ the beads

EXPERIMENT 2 Measurement of g: Use of a simple pendulum OBJECTIVE: To measure the acceleration due to gravity using a simple pendulum. Textbook reference: pp10-15 INTRODUCTION: Many things in nature wiggle in a periodic fashion. That is‚ they vibrate. One such example is a simple pendulum. If we suspend a mass at the end of a piece of string‚ we have a simple pendulum. Here‚ the to and fro motion represents a periodic motion used in times past to control the motion of grandfather and cuckoo

The pendulum shows elastic collision and conserved momentum. In this set up‚ no momentum is actually lost. Ball 0 just transfers its momentum to stationary ball 1 which it collides with(head-on collision) so ball 0 is put to stop then ball 1 collides with ball 2 causing ball 1 to stop and transfer its momentum to ball 2 and so on until the momentum gets transferred to ball 4 then ball 3 collides with ball 2 and the cycle continues.
