Principle
Oscillations occur in physics in an extremely wide range of occurrences.They are macroscopically visible in the swinging and cushioning of cars or suspension bridges. In Nature, however, there is as a rule never a single oscillation but always only co ...
"A mass is not only inert but also heavy." Which is intended to mean that not only is a force necessary to accelerate a mass, but also that each mass in the earth's gravitional field experiences a force, the force of weight. The force of weight is to ...
Leaf springs are thin metal plates that are elastically deformed under load: When a force is applied to a leaf spring, then it is subject to deformation. A characteristic of such an elastic deformation is that the original shape is re-for ...
In this experiment observations are to be made on a spring pendulum which consists of a helical spring with a spring constant D and a mass m which is hung on it. When the pendulum is displaced by smax and let go of, it swings across its r ...
Extensive bodies have the property of weighing less when they are in water than when they are in air, which you notice when you swim, for example. For this reason, even heavy container ships can swim, although a small pebble immediately sinks. In this ...
Helical springs can be connected in parallel as well as in series by hanging them alongside each other or one after the other. This experiment is concerned with the resulting spring constants.
This experiment shows, in a particularly easy manner, that an object in free fall is not subject to acceleration. The state of free fall can, therefore, be used to simulate zero g, as it is experienced in space, e.g. in order to train astronauts prior ...
The oscillation of a spring pendulum is recorded by measuring the force. It is hereby shown, that the frequency is independent of the amplitude of the oscillation. Further to this, the spring constant can be determined from the measured values, or a f ...
The oscillation of a spring pendulum is recorded by measuring the force. The oscillation period is determined for different masses and different spring constants, to find which is depended on.
Pressure plays an important role in daily life, even when it is not often that it makes itself noticeable. But it is always there. In this experiment we will examine what pressure actually is, its properties and its origin.
The oscillation of a spring pendulum is recorded by an acceleration sensor. For this, essentially only the sensor, a spring and a rubber ring are required, no further equipment is necessary. The principle of harmonic oscillation can be so qualitative ...
A capacitor fitted in a direct current circuit has an infinitely large ohmic resistance so no current is measurable. In an alternating current circuit, however, a capacitor behaves completely differently. The resistance of it is finite and a cu ...
A coil in a direct current circuit has an ohmic resistance because of the wire. In an alternating current circuit, however, it has an additional resistance alongside the ohmic resistance, the so-called inductive reactance. This experiment deals with w ...
How does an equalizer function? Equalizers are used in sound engineering to improve tone in stereo systems and in audio computer software, for example. Their basic effect is to weaken certain frequencies of a signal and so to optimize the acoustic con ...
