About this document
Amplitude by Jay Jembe is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document describes an experiment to determine the acceleration due to gravity using a simple pendulum. Measurements were taken of the pendulum length and time period for 6 trials with lengths ranging from 150cm to 25cm. Additionally, the pendulum length was measured at 120cm with a 70 degree displacement to observe the effect of large amplitudes. The data collected was used to calculate the value of g and verify the theoretical relationship between pendulum length and time period.
