Effect of large angle to oscillation?
The motion is likely not to be a simple harmonic motion as required for the formula for the period of a pendulum to work properly. The angle of swing is likely to reduce.
How does the length of the pendulum effect the pendulum?
The longer the length of the pendulum, the longer the time taken for the pendulum to complete 1 oscillation.
How does the foucault pendulum show time?
A Foucault pendulum is a pendulum with a large length which is free to oscillate in any vertical plane. At the equator, the plane of oscillation remains fixed relative to the earth. Elsewhere, the plane of oscillation rotates, at a speed that is related to the latitude of the location. In Paris, where Foucault's pendulum is located, the plane of the pendulum's oscillation moves at approx 11 degrees per hour. This movement can be used to tell the time.
What is the difference between coupled pendulum and simple pendulum?
simple pendulum center of mass and center of oscillation are at the same distance.coupled pendulum is having two bobs attached with a spring.
The amplitude of the pendulum?
The amplitude of a pendulum is the distance between its equilibrium point and the farthest point that it reaches during each oscillation.
What are center of suspension and center of oscillation of a compound pendulum?
The center of suspension of a compound pendulum is the fixed point about which the pendulum rotates, typically where it is hinged. The center of oscillation is the theoretical point at which the entire mass of the pendulum could be concentrated to produce the same period of oscillation as the actual pendulum.
What are the center of suspension and center of oscillation of a compound pendulum?
The center of suspension of a compound pendulum is the point of support from which it hangs, typically the pivot point. The center of oscillation is the theoretical point at which the entire mass of the compound pendulum can be considered to be concentrated to analyze its motion as a simple pendulum.
When will the motion of simple pendulum be shm?
The motion of a simple pendulum will be simple harmonic when the angle of displacement from the vertical is small (less than 10 degrees) and the amplitude is also small.
Why a compound pendulum is called equivalent simple pendulum?
Compound pendulum is a physical pendulum whereas a simple pendulum is ideal pendulum. The difference is that in simple pendulum centre of mass and centre of oscillation are at the same distance.
What is center of oscillation?
The center of oscillation is the point along a pendulum where all its mass can be concentrated without affecting its period of oscillation. It is the point at which an equivalent simple pendulum would have the same period as the actual compound pendulum.
What is that motion which is periodic but not harmonic?
The motion of a pendulum is periodic but not necessarily harmonic if the amplitude of the oscillation is large enough to cause deviations from simple harmonic motion due to gravitational forces.
How do you reduce the frequency of oscillation of a simple pendulum?
You can reduce the frequency of oscillation of a simple pendulum by increasing the length of the pendulum. This will increase the period of the pendulum, resulting in a lower frequency. Alternatively, you can decrease the mass of the pendulum bob, which will also reduce the frequency of oscillation.
What is the relationship between the amplitude of a pendulum and its period of oscillation?
The amplitude of a pendulum does not affect its period of oscillation. The period of oscillation is determined by the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity. The amplitude only affects the maximum angle the pendulum swings from its resting position.
Effect of large angle to oscillation?
The motion is likely not to be a simple harmonic motion as required for the formula for the period of a pendulum to work properly. The angle of swing is likely to reduce.
Point of oscillation of simple pendulum?
The point of oscillation of a simple pendulum is the equilibrium position where the pendulum comes to rest when there is no external force acting on it. It is the bottom-most point of the pendulum's swing where the potential energy is at a minimum and the kinetic energy is at a maximum. This point marks the center of the pendulum's oscillation movement.
What is the example of oscillation?
Motion of pendulum.
What effect does the mass has on the period of oscillation of the pendulum?
The mass of a pendulum does not affect its period of oscillation. The period of a pendulum is determined by its length and the acceleration due to gravity. This means that pendulums with different masses but the same length will have the same period of oscillation.
