Principle

A mass, considered as of point form, suspended on a thread and subjected to the force of gravity, is deflected from its position of rest. The period of the oscillation thus produced is measured as a function of the thread length and the angle of deflection.

Benefits

  • Quick and easy set-up
  • Automatically measure the oscillation period using the light barrier

Tasks

  1. For small deflections, the oscillation period is determined as a function of the cord length.
  2. The acceleration due to gravity is determined.
  3. The oscillation period is determined as a function of the deflection.

Learning objectives

  • Duration of oscillation
  • Period
  • Amplitude
  • Harmonic oscillation
