Experiment: Determination of the Spring Constant
Experiment: Determination of the Spring Constant Theory: If a mass ‘m’ is hanged from the end of a vertically hanged spiral spring, then the length of the spring increases by length ‘l’. In this situation,…
Motion of a Simple Pendulum is Simple Harmonic Motion (SLIM)
Motion of a Simple Pendulum is Simple Harmonic Motion (SLIM) Almost a valueless body suspended by a weightless, soft and non-compressible thread from a rigid support is allowed to oscillate in simple harmonic motion from…
Relation between Simple Harmonic Motion and Circular Motion
Relation between Simple Harmonic Motion and Circular Motion Circular motion is one type of simple harmonic motion. That means, circular motion obeys characteristics of simple harmonic motion. Now observe the figure for establishing a relation…
Conservation of Energy in the Motion of Simple Pendulum
Conservation of Energy in the motion of simple pendulum In a simple pendulum with no friction, mechanical energy is conserved. When a simple pendulum oscillates with simple harmonic motion, it gains some kinetic energy because…
Forth Law of Simple Pendulum – Law of Mass
Fourth Law—Law of Mass: When the angular amplitude does not exceed 4°, time period of a simple pendulum of given length at a particular place is independent of the mass or material of the bob.…
Third Law of Simple Pendulum – Law of Acceleration
Third Law of Simple Pendulum —Law of acceleration: When the angular acceleration does not exceed 4°, the time period of a simple pendulum for a particular length is inversely proportional to square root of the…
Second Law of Simple Pendulum – Law of Length
Second Law of Simple Pendulum —Law of length: When the angular amplitude of oscillation does not exceed 4°, the time period of a simple pendulum at a particular place is directly proportional to the square…
First Law of Simple Pendulum – Law of Isochronisms
First Law of Simple Pendulum—Law of isochronisms: When the angular amplitude of oscillation does not exceed 4°, the time period of oscillation of a simple pendulum of fix length at a given place is always…
Measurement of Time by Simple Pendulum
Measurement of time by simple pendulum One type of clock can be made by pendulum to measure time. It is known as pendulum clock. The time period of this clock is 2 seconds. In every…
