Simple Pendulum Apparatus

The Simple Pendulum oscillates on a knife-edge bracket attached to the wall at a convenient height.
The Simple Pendulum mass can be adjusted to any position along the pendulum cord length, quickly and easily. Set-up time is minimal for excellent results.
A Simple Pendulum consisting of a cord with a ring at the top end and a sliding pendulum mass.
A stopwatch and ruler are supplied to time the swing of the pendulum and to measure its length.

Experimental Capabilities:
To show that the periodic time of swing is proportional to the square root of the pendulum length
To determine the gravitational acceleration 'g'.
