Questions

  1. You are provided with the following apparatus
    • A metre rule
    • Two stands
    • A pendulum bob
    • Some plasticine
    • Stop watch
    • Two pieces of strings (long and short one)

      Proceed as follows:
      1. Attach one end of the length of string to the metre rule at 10cm mark. Mark by use of a sliding loop of string round the meter rule.
      2. Fix the string at this point with the small bob of plasticine.
      3. Tie the string in a second loop at 90cm mark so that the string is stretched tight between the two marks.
      4. Fix this loop with a small plasticine. Attach the pendulum bob to the centre of the string so that the centre of gravity is 15cm below the point of suspension.
      5. If the attachments of the pendulum bob to the pieces does not produce a V-shape. Squeeze the string at the knot between the thumb and the fore finger.
