Initial Observation and Hypothesis
Pendulums usually surround us, but we
do not always notice them. It is even less often that we observe their
oscillations. You can find the pendulums around you and observe them. A
pendulum can be made easily.
My
brief observations (see the posted video clips) allowed me to make the
following hypothesis:
1.
The
time-period in which pendulum oscillates does not depend on the angle of
revolution if the angle is small enough.
2.
The
time-period in which the pendulum oscillates does not depend on the mass of the
load.
3.
The
time-period in which the pendulum oscillates increases as the length of the
pendulum decreases.
