PASCO Centripetal Force on a Pendulum Experiment

Purpose: Students explore the relationship between mass, radius of rotation, angular velocity, and centripetal force. By continuously measuring the force and angular velocity, students see not just peak values but also how these change during the entire motion of the pendulum. Educational Topics: Centripetal force Angular velocity Periodic motion What's Included: 1× PASPORT High Resolution Force Sensor (PS-2189) 1× PASPORT Rotary Motion Sensor (PS-2120A) 1× Centripetal Force Pendulum (ME-9821) 1× Aluminum Table Clamp (ME-8995) 1× Stainless Steel Rod, 45 cm (ME-8736)
