The Pit and the Pendulum" Symbolism: Although the events in the story create suspense and interest‚ its the story’s deeper meaning that makes it so good. An analysis of the pit (death or hell)‚ the scythe/pendulum (time and death)‚ and the angelic forms of the Inquisitorial tribune (angels of death) are three of many symbols in the novel. Stripped of extraneous detail‚ the story focuses on what horror truly is: not the physical pain of death‚ but the terrible realization that a victim has no choice

| The Ballistic Pendulum | Determining the initial speed of a projectile | | | | | THE BALLISTIC PENDULUM ABSTRACT The experiment was carried out to determine the initial speed of a projectile: i) by means of a ballistic pendulum. ii) by measurements of the range and vertical distance of fall during its flight. The initial speed for the ballistic pendulum was found to be 5.0551±0.0008m/s and the initial speed for the pendulum was found to be 4.72±0.02 m/s. INTRODUCTION:

Simple Pendulum PURPOSE The purpose of this experiment is to study how the period of a pendulum depends on length‚ mass‚ and amplitude of the swing. THEORY A simple pendulum is an idealized model consisting of a point mass (sometimes called a pendulum bob) suspended by a massless unstretchable string. When the bob is pulled to one side of its straight down equilibrium position and released‚ it oscillates about the equilibrium position. The path of the bob is not a straight line but an arc

She isn’t a very good man! Andy Fickman’s She’s the Man did indeed hit the fan. In this film review I will be going to talk to you about the relevance of the film to teenagers‚ the quality of film techniques and the quality of actor performances. I will also be talking about Shakespeare intent for the original play‚ and how is this achieved in the adaption of "She’s the man". The social‚ moral of ethical message conveyed

Inventions of the Renaissance Clocks The first mechanical clock was invented in the early 1300’s. With this invention time began to be measured in hours (24 hours equaling a day). Galileo‚ an Italian scientist‚ discovered the pendulum in 1581. The pendulum greatly improved the constant movement of the hands or bell of a clock. The average error with the pendulum varied only by seconds each day. Before this the error was from 10 to 15 minutes a day. During the 1600’s the metallic gear‚ or toothed

What Factors Affect the Period of a Pendulum? Introduction In this experiment‚ my group will find out what are the factors that affect the period of a pendulum. In this report‚ I will personally explain the aim of the experiment‚ the hypothesis of my group‚ the variables‚ the apparatus‚ method‚ data‚ data analysis‚ evaluation and last but not least the conclusion. Aim To find out whether the heavy or light pendulum will affect the period as well as the string’s length Hypothesis

Pendula A pendulum consists of an arm of low mass with a bob‚ which has a higher mass‚ on the end. The top of the arm is pivoted so that the pendulum can swing. A pendulum will continue to swing back and forth indefinately‚ until it is stopped by air friction and friction within the pivot. When the angle‚ á‚ between the stationary line of the pendulum (the line towards which the movement tends) and the line of maximum amplitude of the pendulum is quite small‚ then the time period of the pendulum can be

Arellanes “The Pit and the Pendulum” is a short horror story. The story is set in the time of the Spanish Inquisition. Poe tells the story in a first person point of view. The story is a story of a man who is placed in a dark room. The man is sitting there. He is given a pitcher of spiked water. He drinks the water which causes him to lose consciousness. When he awakens‚ he is bound to a wooden bed. He notices the smell of burning iron when he awakens. When he is first awake‚ he notices he is in
