Newtonian, Lagrangian, and Hamiltonian approaches! 🕰️🔬 In this video, we explore the motion of a simple pendulum from three different perspectives: the Newtonian approach (using forces and ...

A basic pendulum is a mass at the end of a string that swings back and forth. It seems simple, and it appears in most introductory physics textbooks. But it's not a trivial problem to solve for the ...

Learn how to make a simple DIY pendulum using a ping pong ball and basic household materials. This step-by-step guide shows ...

Miami’s physics department may have gotten a new house last year, but it never really felt like home — until now. Missing was the department’s famed Foucault Pendulum. It couldn’t be moved from Culler ...

The Foucault Pendulum illustrates the rotation of the earth. It is not constrained to stay in a fixed plane like a clock pendulum, but instead its ordinary pendulum motion is free to change direction ...
