About this document

Simple Pendulum Experiment for g by Tren EDWARD is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This experiment uses a simple pendulum to determine the acceleration due to gravity, g. A pendulum with a bob is set up and swung with an amplitude of 10 degrees or less. The time for 20 oscillations is measured for different pendulum lengths. The period is calculated and graphed against the length squared. The slope of the line is used to calculate g, which is stated in the conclusion.
