Make a pendulum clock whose pendulum has a period of two seconds. Calculations shows that the length of a pendulum if this period with a fixed support would be about one meter. Make a pendulum with a yielding support. ix) Use the results from the experiment to calculate a value for d that would give a period of two seconds for the pendulum used. x) Use your answer to (ix) to suggest whether the use of a yielding support would save space.

at a constant speed in a straight line until you apply a force to it. F = ma Newton’s Second Law: • F is the force in Newton’s‚ N. • m is the mass in kilograms‚ kg. • a is the acceleration in m/s2. This shows that if you keep the mass constant and double the applied force the acceleration will double. Hooke’s Law‚ elastic and plastic behaviour F = kx An elastic material is one that will return to its original shape when the force applied to it is taken away. A plastic (or inelastic)

The essential part in this practical is to plan the experiment in detail in order to obtain substantial data. Firstly we have to identify our controlled variables which will be kept constant throughout the experiment. By carrying out this practical it

Presentation In Physics Objectives: 1. To answer the following questions: What is an investigatory project ? Why do 4th year students make an investigatory project ? Why did we choose our investigatory project ? To defend our investigatory project. What is an investigatory project ? An investigatory project is also known as an experimental project and is one which is used to show how something might happen if certain conditions are added to it. It can also be used to investigate why

Approximation of Planck’s constant and work function using Photoelectric effect on the particle nature of light Abstract This experiment aims to demonstrate the particle nature of light by photoelectric effect. Stopping potential was measured against different intensities of yellow (λ = 578 nm) and green (λ = 546 nm) light from first order spectral lines of mercury. No significant relationship was observed for stopping potential and percent transmission. However‚ charging
