In your own words, describe periodic motion using a rocking chair as a reference.
On the graph, demonstrate all 4 amplitudes.
On the graph, demonstrate ONE cycle.
Based on your findings from the 'Mass on a Spring' Lab, predict what would happen to the period.
...the period increases | ...the period decreases | |
|---|---|---|
As damping increased... | ||
As stiffness decreased... | ||
As mass decreased... |
Based on your findings from the 'Predict the Pendulum' Lab, predict what would happen to the frequency.
...the frequency increases | ...the frequency decreases | |
|---|---|---|
As gravity increased... | ||
As the string length decreased... | ||
As mass decreased... |
A pendulum is observed to complete 36 full cycles in 2 minutes 10 seconds. Determine the period of the pendulum.
A pendulum is observed to complete 36 full cycles in 2 minutes 10 seconds. Determine the frequency of the pendulum.
A mass is tied to a spring and begins vibrating periodically. The distance between its highest and its lowest position is 60 cm. What is the amplitude of the vibrations?
Using the pendulum swing in the picture, visually represent the change in period and frequency if:
The mass of the yellow ball INCREASED.
