Compound Pendulum Apparatus | ProDynami - 1306
Product Overview
The Compound Pendulum Apparatus ProDynami - 1306 studies the time period and frequency of compound pendulums using a steel rod with movable weights. This Compound Pendulum Apparatus compares physical and mathematical pendulum behavior through both rod and thread pendulum setups. It features a sliding knife edge bearing, movable steel ball weights, and a nylon cord thread pendulum. The apparatus mounts on an HDF base plate for wall installation.

Construction and Design
The Compound Pendulum Apparatus ProDynami - 1306 consists of a metallic rod, made of steel, 1000mm in length with an 8mm diameter and a mass of 0.39kg. The rod is mounted on a sliding knife edge bearing and can be pivoted at any desired point. Additional weights, in the form of steel balls with a 50mm diameter and 0.49kg mass, can be moved along the rod. A separate thread pendulum uses a nylon cord as the thread, with different bobs available in varying sizes and materials. The base plate is made of HDF and designed for wall mounting.
