is to study the period of the pendulum with different masses. Secondly to also study the relationship in the different lengths of the string and how it affects the period. Thirdly to find the different (time) periods in the changes in the arc size. Theory If the pendulum is set ‚ the force of the motion is used to swing back and forth . where the t period is the time the pendulum takes to complete a cycle of oscillation. As t-1/f the complete distance of the pendulum and its mass is finished ‚ the

CENTRIPETAL FORCE ON A PENDULUM OBJECTIVE To measure centripetal force exerted on a pendulum using the force sensor bob and in so doing compare this value determined by force calculations based on the height of the pendulum. THEORY Newton’s laws of motion are the basis for this experiment. Newton’s first law of motion states that a body in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an external force. Newton’s second law of motion states that the rate of momentum of a body is dependent on

Q1. Outline the historical development of the models of the universe from the time of Aristotle to the time of Newton. Aristotle: Geocentric model of the universe involved a series of 56 concentric spheres to which celestial objects were attached. The Earth was not in motion as the stars showed no measureable parallax. Each planet‚ the Sun‚ and the Moon were in their own sphere and the stars were positioned on a larger sphere surrounding all the others. Ptolemy: Geocentric model of the universe

Pendulum Problems ACTIVITY 1: Copy and paste the example problem and the steps‚ so that the steps are in the correct order into a new Word document and upload it to Moodle. Example Problem 1: A hypnotist swings her watch from 20.0cm chain in front of a subject’s eyes. What is the period of the swing of the watch. Thus‚ we see that the pendulum used by the hypnotist has a period of 0.898s. | Before we can use this formula‚ however‚ we must ensure all our variables are in the correct units.

How a Pendulum Works Isaac Olson Mitch Koebnick‚ Kyle Orr 13 September 2013 A Period Purpose There are three purposes of this experiment. The first purpose is to determine the relationship of the period and the amplitude of the pendulum. The second purpose is to determine the relationship of the period and the mass of the pendulum. The final‚ but most certainly not the least‚ purpose of this experiment is to determine the relationship of the period and the length of the pendulum. Procedure

“The Pit and the Pendulum” Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Pit and the Pendulum” was one of his most famous works of artistic literature. With his unusually morbid writing technique‚ Poe created a story in which real fears came alive. “The Pit and the Pendulum” consists of two main themes as well as symbolism.
