- Description
Description
Students explore the relationship between mass, radius of rotation, angular velocity, and centripetal force. By continuously measuring the force and angular velocity, students see not just peak values but also how these change during the entire motion of the pendulum. Students explore sources of error and magnitude of error.
Designed for use with any of the following
- 850 Universal Interface
- 550 Universal Interface
- Any PASPORT interface with 2 ports
Concepts
- Centripetal force
- Angular velocity
- Periodic motion
