Title: Compound Pendulum Background: Background 1 by Syahnaz Azlin Razlan The experiment “Compound Pendulum” was conducted on 13th August 2008 in Machines Dynamics Laboratory. The experiment was conducted in groups of four‚ and was supervised by lecturer Mr. Mohd Azahari Johan. Conducting this experiment is for fulfilling the requirements of Applied Mechanics Lab (MEC 424). A pendulum is defined as body so suspended from a fixed point as to swing freely to and from by the alternate action

Acceleration Due to Gravity with a Simple Pendulum Quintin T. Nethercott and M. Evelynn Walton Department of Physics‚ University of Utah‚ Salt Lake City‚ 84112‚ UT‚ USA (Dated: March 6‚ 2013) Using a simple pendulum the acceleration due to gravity in Salt Lake City‚ Utah‚ USA was found to be (9.8 +/- .1) m/s2 . The model was constructed with the square of the period of oscillations in the small angle approximation being proportional to the length of the pendulum. The model was supported by the data

Kater’s Pendulum Thomas Markovich and Kapil Chhabria Departments of Physics University of Houston Houston‚ TX 77204-5006 (Dated: December 9‚ 2010) We experimentally determined the local gravitational constant using Kater’s Pendulum to provide the authors with experience in data analysis. In this manuscript‚ we rigorously derive the relevant equations from first principles with the appropriate expressions for the experimental uncertainty. We found that by assuming the periods were equal we were

Word Processed Practical Report Pendulum Aim: To investigate the relationship between the length of pendulum and the time it takes. Theory: Hence the gravitational acceleration “g” can be calculated by this equation: T=2πLg T=2πLg (T the period in seconds‚ l the length in meter and g the gravitational acceleration in m/s2) Method: As stated earlier in the introduction‚ it was decided to measure the time for 10 complete swings‚ in order to reduce

The compound pendulum Consider an extended body of mass with a hole drilled though it. Suppose that the body is suspended from a fixed peg‚ which passes through the hole‚ such that it is free to swing from side to side‚ as shown in Fig. 98. This setup is known as a compound pendulum. | Figure 98: A compound pendulum. | Let be the pivot point‚ and let be the body’s centre of mass‚ which is located a distance from the pivot. Let be the angle subtended between the downward vertical (which passes

CHE 317 "Simple Distillation" Interpretation of Results and the Report In addition to learning the technique of performing a distillation‚ you have had the opportunity to observe at first hand the behavior of a reasonably pure compound in the distillation process. You also measured quantities (temperatures) whose magnitudes you did not know beforehand.

Activity 1: Simple diffusion Introduction: Simple diffusion is the net movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration so its overall net movement is along the concentration gradient‚ simple diffusion does not require energy therefore it is ’passive’‚ substances are diffused across the membrane between the phospholipids. Materials and methods: * 20 mwco dialysis membrane * 50 mwco dialysis membrane * 100 mwco dialysis membrane * 200 mwco

Lab report is one way we used during of after an experiment in a laboratory to subtly record and discuss the experiment. During a lab‚ we sometimes can observe only the physical part of the experiment‚ or may be some visible chemical changes. These changes indicate that the experiment we do is successful or not. However‚ in order to understand and achieve more from just simply doing the experiment‚ we write lab report to more profoundly understand the internal meanings of the experiment we do‚ and
