Z. K. L3 A THE SIMPLE PENDULUM • General Background: A mass m hanging from a string whose length is L and a pivot point on which this mass is fixed are what a simple pendulum (which was discovered during the 10th century by Ibn Yusuf) consists of. During the 17th century‚ it is developed by some physicist‚ especially by Galileo. When the mass hanging from the string is released with an initial angle‚ it starts to move with a periodic motion. The motion can be approximated as a simple
Premium Pendulum Classical mechanics
EXPERIMENT No. 2 The Simple Pendulum Abstract A simple pendulum is one which can be considered to be a point mass suspended from a string or rod of negligible mass and allowing it to sway back and forth in a place. The objective of this experiment is to observe the motion of a simple pendulum‚ study simple harmonic motion‚ determine some factors that affect the period of a pendulum‚ and measure the value of acceleration due to gravity by use of a simple pendulum. The materials used were inelastic

The Ballistic Pendulum Crime Lab Physics You are a criminologist‚ and have been given a gun which has been used in the commission of a crime. Both prosecution and defense claim that "muzzle velocity" (speed of the bullet as it leaves the gun) is crucial to the case. Your job...FIND IT! Shown below is a diagram representing a "ballistic pendulum." The bullet is fired into the block‚ the bullet-block combination rises by a height h as shown‚ a little physics is applied‚ and ...voila!...there

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

Foucault: Panopticon During the seventeenth century‚ the plague became a very big issue. Many died from it‚ and many societies were devastated from the aftermath. During this time‚ however‚ many higher officials felt the need to create guidelines to deal with the problem of the plague. The solution was isolation and strict discipline. There was constant surveillance‚ and the residents were checked on frequently to make sure they were following orders. This community during the plague was

Light of Darkness In the story‚ "The Pit and the Pendulum"‚ written by the infamous Edgar Allen Poe‚ written in 1843‚ places a man during the time of the Inquisition who is incarnated. Beginning the story‚ this man‚ who remains unnamed‚ receives a death sentence and immediately faints. Upon waking he finds himself in a completely dark room. Scared that he is inside a tomb‚ he moves around to reinsure himself. Upon exploring this darkened room he accidentally trips and falls finding that his

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
