What will I learn?
This course offers a practical guide to building accurate pendulum experiments, choosing the right equipment, managing external influences for reliable data, perfecting timing techniques, processing information, evaluating errors and uncertainties, matching findings to theoretical models, selecting suitable g values, and compiling professional reports with solid conclusions.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Design accurate pendulum setups: fine-tune length, pivot, bob, and release angle.
- Measure periods precisely: manage surroundings, timing methods, and start triggers.
- Analyse data thoroughly: use regression, error bars, and propagate uncertainties.
- Validate theory against results: check T ∝ √L, angle constraints, and g selection.
- Create polished reports: organise content, reference g properly, and address discrepancies.
