Name: Kaili Smith Pendulum 1. Research to find equations that would help you find g using a pendulum. Design an experiment and test your design using Moon and Jupiter. 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

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 used were inelastic

Z. K. L3 A THE SIMPLE PENDULUM • General Background: A mass m hanging from a string whose length is L and a pivot point on which this mass is fixed are what a simple pendulum (which was discovered during the 10th century by Ibn Yusuf) consists of. During the 17th century‚ it is developed by some physicist‚ especially by Galileo. When the mass hanging from the string is released with an initial angle‚ it starts to move with a periodic motion. The motion can be approximated as a simple

calculations and ultimately creating a time piece (oscillator) Method In part A (Simple Pendulum) we will measure the effects of mass on the period of the pendulum. We will also calculate the period using small angular displacements and compare the results. We will also explore the effects on the period when the angular displacement is not “very small” (in essence > 10°). Lastly we will look at creating our own pendulum clock to create a period of 1 second. In part B (Mass on a Spring) we will experiment

means‚ the relationship between periodic time and length for a simple pendulum. Apparatus: Pendulum bob‚ light string‚ clamp stand‚ meter ruler‚ stopwatch‚ graph paper. Theory: The relationship between two physical quantities can be determined by graphical means. For a simple pendulum‚ the relationship between periodic time and length is given by the equation Where‚ T is the periodic time‚ 1 is the length of the pendulum string and g is acceleration due to gravity A graph of periodic time

Step 1: The hand holding the the weight in the pendulum will release the weight and allow it to swing forward to hit the car. This is potential energy by the force of motion of the weight on the pendulum. Potential energy is the energy an object produces due to its position. The pendulum swinging is it being in motion therefore it has kinetic energy. The force shown form this could be Applied Force. Applied force is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. Step 2: After

The Ballistic Pendulum Crime Lab Physics You are a criminologist‚ and have been given a gun which has been used in the commission of a crime. Both prosecution and defense claim that "muzzle velocity" (speed of the bullet as it leaves the gun) is crucial to the case. Your job...FIND IT! Shown below is a diagram representing a "ballistic pendulum." The bullet is fired into the block‚ the bullet-block combination rises by a height h as shown‚ a little physics is applied‚ and ...voila!...there

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

Pit bulls tend to have a publically bad reputation‚ they have been misjudge because of what people have seen on TV‚ in movies and on the Internet. I feel that pit bulls do not get the credit they deserve. The only time a pit is recognize is when it attacks and causes damage to a human or another animal. The aggression trait has been bred into this dog‚ by inbreeding and breeding for those particular traits. It is also a manner of how the animal is treated and raised‚ which boils down to the person
