What can make the pendulum swing faster?
By shorten the string of the pendulum
How do you do a science fair project on a baseball pendulum?
You make a pendulum with a basbeall attached to an end of the string. you are testing the periods and oscillation movements of the pendulum.
How the motion of simple pendulum is affected if it is placed at the center of earth?
If the plumb point of a pendulum is the center of earth, the pendulum will make diametrical oscillations
What can you make with a penny and string?
pendulum
Will a pendulum swing on the moon?
I think it will as it has mechanical parts to make the pendulum move, not 100% sure.
Rosa's family has a grandfather clock with a pendulum The clock is not keeping time correctly because the pendulum is swinging too quickly What could Rosa do to slow down the pendulum swing?
To slow down a swinging clock pendulum, one must make it longer. In mechanical clocks, the majority of the mass of the pendulum is contained in the "bob" (a disk or weight) usually at the bottom of the pendulum. If you lower the pendulum bob, the pendulum is lengthened and the pendulum runs slower. This is usually done by turning a nut on a threaded portion of the pendulum just below the bob. Make sure the bob drops as you lower the nut or nothing will change. To raise the rate of the pendulum (make it run faster), you just turn the nut the opposite way.
Relationship between period of pendulum and length?
The longer a pendulum is, the more time it takes a pendulum takes to complete a period of time. If a clock is regulated by a pendulum and it runs fast, you can make it run slower by making the pendulum longer. Likewise, if the clock runs slow, you can make your clock run faster by making the pendulum shorter. (What a pendulum actually does is measure the ratio between time and gravity at a particular location, but that is beyond the scope of this answer.)
How can you make a pendulum to swing faster?
If the pendulum was pushed with a large force or if it was heavier. It might swing faster.
What is frequency of a pendulum?
The frequency of a pendulum is 1 divided by (the number of seconds to make one complete swing)
How does the Foucault pendulum work?
The Foucault Pendulum experiment proves that the Earth rotates beneath the pendulum, which proved that the Earth rotates. If one were to make a pendulum on the equator it would not work because it doesnt rotate at that point of the Earth.
Why must a pendulum swing through a small angle?
A pendulum can swing through any angle you want. But because of the mathematical approximations you make when you analyze the motion of the pendulum, your predictions are only accurate for a pendulum with a small arc.
