What will I learn?
This course provides a targeted, practical guide to building accurate simple pendulum experiments, choosing dependable equipment, managing environmental influences for reliable data, perfecting timing techniques, processing data, performing error analysis and uncertainty calculations, validating findings against theoretical models, selecting suitable g values, and crafting detailed reports with solid, justified conclusions.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Design accurate pendulum configurations: fine-tune length, pivot, bob, and release angle.
- Accurately time pendulum oscillations: manage surroundings, timing methods, and start triggers.
- Process pendulum data: use regression analysis, error bars, and uncertainty calculations.
- Validate experimental results against theory: verify T ∝ √L, small-angle approximations, and g selection.
- Create professional reports: organise content, reference g properly, and address uncertainties.
