Dimensional Analysis: Investigation on bifilar suspension Ho Yuk Him (Date of experimentation :20th and 29th October‚ 2010) This paper presents a study on the application of dimensional analysis on the formulation of an equation concerning the periodic time of a rod rotating at an angle about the vertical axis suspended by two strings at each end. We find that period is inversely related to distance between the strings parallel to each other and directly proportional to the both the square root of

the interminable agony of being tortured as a lab mouse. The best terror stories create suspense through the setting. Most of the times‚ the character does not know completely where he is or what enemy or problem he is facing. In "The Pit and the Pendulum"‚ the underground prison is dark; as a result‚ the character compares the place with hell or even his tomb. That is why at the beginning‚ during his dream-like state‚ he does not want to open his eyes and we do not know where he is either. The darkness

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
