Introduction In this lab we had to design a system that would test if changing the mass‚ angle of release and length would have any effect on the period of a pendulum. Hypothesis As the length‚ mass and angle of release change‚ the period (T) will change for each one of these factors.

“To what extent does the length of the string affect the period of a simple pendulum?” IBDP PHYSICS Internal Assessment – The Simple Pendulum 9 INTRODUCTION The original aim for this invesigation was to “investigate the simple pendulum”. There are many variables one could look into‚ such as displacement‚ angle‚ damping‚ mass of the bob etc. The most interesting variable‚ however‚ is the length of the swinging pendulum. The relationship between the length and the time for one swing (the period)

Pendulum Raiyan Hassan SPH3U September 20‚ 2011 Introduction A pendulum is a device which consists of a mass attached to a string from a frictionless pivot which allows it to swing back and forth. In this experiment‚ the time it takes for a pendulum to go through a period is going to be measured. The time it takes for a pendulum to go through one period can depend on factors such as the length of the string‚ mass‚ or the degree in which the pendulum is released from (amplitude). In this

Background Information: Equation One: T=2πlg Where T = the period of the pendulum (s). This is the time taken for the pendulum to return to its starting position. l = length of the pendulum g = the rate of acceleration due to gravity (ms-2) * In

Introduction: Aim: To find the relationship between the length of a simple pendulum and the period of oscillation. Research question: How does the string length of the pendulum affect the period of oscillation? Prediction: The longer the string‚ the longer it will take to make one complete oscillation. Variables: Independent variable: Length (L). Dependent variable: Period of oscillation (T). Controlled variable: Mass of the plasticine. Tools & Materials: Stopwatch. Ruler. String. Plasticine

Write your procedure in a paragraph that another student could use to verify your results. Show your data‚ graphs‚ and calculations that support your strategy. The time it takes a pendulum to complete one back-and-forth swing‚ called the pendulum’s period‚ depends only on the pendulum’s length and

Is gravity always 9.8m/s2?? INTRODUCTION: A simple pendulum consists of a mass m swinging back and forth along a circular arc at the end of a string of negligible mass. A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. Gravity is the pull that two bodies of mass exert on one another. There are several simple experiments that will allow you to calculate the acceleration due to gravity of a falling object. A simple pendulum can determine this acceleration. The only variables

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
