Filar Pendulums

This product includes a rod and a circular plate to show the principles and use of simple harmonic motion theory in bifilar and trifilar pendulums. Filar Pendulums fits to the sturdy Test Frame for study or demonstration. Two suspension plates fix to the top of the Test Frame to hold the bifilar and trifilar pendulums
