Description: Compare the period of a meter stick pivoted at its end and a point 1/3 from the end. Also compare the period to that of a simple pendulum 2/3 of the length of the physical pendulum. Purchased/Built: built Setup Time: 5 min Quant. in Demo Room: 1 Demo References The Video Encyclopedia of Physics Demonstrations Disc 08-18 Compare the period of a bar supported at the end with a simple pendulum of 2/3 length. Sutton M-203 Suspend the meter stick from one end and find the center of oscillation with a simple pendulum of the same period. The Physics Teacher TPT 12(8),494 Analysis of the oscillating bar includes suspending the bar from a string. The Physics Teacher TPT 17(1),52 Analysis of the oscillating bar with a graph of typical data.
