Physics PENDULUM INVESTIGATION Aim of the investigation The aim of the pendulum investigation is to see what will happen if I change a variable whilst I swing a pendulum and see the effect which it has on the pendulums time to complete one whole swing (from where it starts‚ to the opposite end‚ and back again). This will give me an insight into what will effect the time of the swinging of the pendulum‚ be it weight‚ string length‚ the angle‚ or the swinging point. Planning my investigation

Pendula A pendulum consists of an arm of low mass with a bob‚ which has a higher mass‚ on the end. The top of the arm is pivoted so that the pendulum can swing. A pendulum will continue to swing back and forth indefinately‚ until it is stopped by air friction and friction within the pivot. When the angle‚ á‚ between the stationary line of the pendulum (the line towards which the movement tends) and the line of maximum amplitude of the pendulum is quite small‚ then the time period of the pendulum can be

Open-ended Investigation (mass and force) Aim: To show the relationship between Mass‚ the force acting on it‚ and acceleration by gathering data through investigations. Hypothesis: As Mass increases‚ Acceleration Decreases. Therefore‚ Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass. Introduction A force is a push or pull acting upon an object‚ as a result of its interaction with another object. In a state of motion‚ an object experiences different forces which influences its movement. There are many

earth; gravity. Whenever I think of gravity‚ the same questions never fail to come to mind. What exactly is gravity? Could human life possible go on without gravity? How exactly does gravity work in terms of numbers and formulas? How was gravity truly discovered and defined‚ and by whom? Gravity is universal‚ and it not affects earth and its inhabitants‚ but also the entire nebulous of stars and planets. Gravity is the force that pulls all things toward the center of the earth. Gravity holds your

Ana‚ Mariel 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

Downloaded from www.campusportal.com.ng PHYSICS PREAMBLE The syllabus is evolved from the Senior Secondary School teaching syllabus and is intended to indicate the scope of the course for Physics examination. It is structured with the conceptual approach. The broad concepts of matter‚ position‚ motion and time; energy; waves; fields; Atomic and Nuclear Physics‚ electronics are considered and each concept forms a part on which other subconcepts are further based. AIMS The aims of the syllabus are to enable candidates

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
