About SIMPLE PENDULUM
Specification:
SIMPLE PENDULUM
Easy variability of all the parameters: mass, length of the wire, angle of the oscillations
Fixation of the perfectly punctual thread
3 masses of identical volume realize a device of measurement of a duration and to carry out a step of investigation of the parameters impacting or not the period of movement
The length of the wire is easily adjusted thanks to the system of winding of the wire
Each turn of wire is exactly 10 cm
The reading of the angle of oscillation is direct on the angle protractor graduated in degree.
