A basic pendulum is a mass at the end of a string that swings back and forth. It seems simple, and it appears in most introductory physics textbooks. But it's not a trivial problem to solve for the ...

The narrator observed a pendulum in the choir, understanding its isochronal motion was governed by the wire's length and π. A magnetic device beneath the floor ensured its perpetual oscillation by ...

Miami’s physics department may have gotten a new house last year, but it never really felt like home — until now. Missing was the department’s famed Foucault Pendulum. It couldn’t be moved from Culler ...

Pendulum simulation and visualization in Python physics. This video demonstrates how to model pendulum motion numerically and visualize the results to better understand oscillations, forces, and ...

The Buffalo Museum of Science's impressive 75-foot Foucault pendulum is no longer out of commission, thanks to the efforts of a professor and undergraduate student in UB's Department of Physics. The ...
