Simple pendulums are tools that demonstrate simple harmonic motion (if the angle of displacement is less than 30 degrees). When the pendulum is at rest, the displacement angle is equal to zero degrees.
28 mar 2024 · A pendulum exhibits simple harmonic motion (SHM), which allowed us to measure the gravitational constant by measuring the period of the pendulum. The period, \(T\) , of a pendulum of length \(L\) undergoing simple harmonic motion is given by:
3.0 Theory: A simple pendulum consists of a bob suspended by a light (massless) string of length ‘L’ fixed at its upper end. In an ideal case, when a mass is pulled back and release, the mass swings through its equilibrium point to a point equal in height to the release point, and back to the original release point over the same path.
The purpose of this lab was to experimentally determine a value for g, the acceleration of Earth’s gravity, by using the given ‘pendulum equation’ and experimental data for the period of a pendulum and the length of a pendulum string. Additionally, we were to consider how the period of a pendulum is affected by its length.

2 wrz 2003 · Lab Report Submittal Date: September 9, 2003 Lab 1: The Pendulum Abstract The goal of this experiment was to determine the effect of mass and length on the period of oscillation of a simple pendulum. Using a photogate to measure the period, we varied the pendulum mass for a fixed length, and varied the pendulum length for a fixed mass. The results
