Determination of Earth's gravitational acceleration using simple pendulum Performing this experiment at home you should take care about appropriate health and safety conditions of yourself, your environment, and other people in the house To carry out this experiment you should: 1) Set up an appropriate model of a simple pendulum 2) Choose the correct place to perform measurements (the place where you hand a pendulum) 3) Complete the equipment to perform measurements 4) Perform measurements 5) Analyze the obtained results Ad. 1. A simple pendulum consists of a thin, strong, and light thread and a small, massive weight that can be fixed at one end of the thread. A string is light when its mass is much smaller than the mass of the weight (it is advised that the thread weight should be less than 0.5% of the weight). The information about a thread's mass is given by its manufacturer. The thread is strong when the change of its length after hanging the weight is not visible. A suitable fishing line can work well. The weight is small when its dimension is much smaller than a thread's length. The weight should have a rather streamlined shape - similar to a ball or disk (e.g. a washer, nut, bolt with nuts) and it should not be too light, because then the friction in the air will become too important. The mass of the weight should rather be within 15- 30 g The length of the thread should rather not be shorter than approx. 1 m and depends on the possibilities of the place where the pendulum can be hung. A longer thread provides better measurement accuracy. Ad. 2. Strona 1 z 5 The pendulum should hang freely and be able to make small swings in one plane. Good places are e.g. table edge, desk edge, cabinet edge, rung of a stable ladder. Make sure that the pendulum does not damage the furniture used. It should be possible to assess (limit) the maximum deflections of the pendulum from the equilibrium position, which should not exceed 7 (this means that the amplitude of the pendulum does not exceed 10% of the pendulum length). You can use the picture at the end of the manual. The pendulum can be hung on a stable, rigid rod protruding beyond the used edge. A suitably stiff crayon, stiff pencil, rice sticks, etc. can be used as the rod. The pendulum's thread can be attached to the rod with a strong paper clip, clothespin clip, or other stable means. The rod can be pressed against the used furniture with a stack of books or another load. The point of attachment of the thread mustn't move in any way during the swing of the pendulum (otherwise the length of the pendulum will not be constant). Ad. 3. Equipment for measuring the length of the pendulum and for measuring the duration of a certain number of pendulum swings will be required to perform the measurements. A tape measure or a tailor's meter will be suitable for measuring the length, You can also use laser meters used in civil engineering. It is also possible to use a tape carefully glued from strips of millimeter paper and suspended in the background of the pendu- lum. The expected accuracy is 1 mm and it should not be worse than 0.5 cm. To measure the time you can use stopwatches- mechanical or digital, e.g. available in phone or other digital clocks. Expected accuracy should be no worse than 0.2 s (typical value for mechanical stopwatches). It should be remembered that when meas- uring time manually, the reaction time of the experimenter is decisive, which is usually not better than 0.2 s. Proper training before starting basic measurements should give better results. Ad. 4. Measurements of the duration of an appropriate number of pendulum oscillations for different pendulum lengths should be made. For example 10 or 20 full fluctuations, but remember that when you turn on the stopwatch, you start counting fluctuations from 0 (zero). The number N of different pendulum lengths should not be less than 10 and not greater than 20. You should remember that the length of the pendulum is measured from the place of suspension to the center of mass of the weight. It can be difficult to identify this location for a homemade pendulum. Therefore, weights of a regular shape and a homogeneous material should be selected. Formally, the so-called reduced length of the pendulum should be determined. Its determination for unusual weights is also not easy. Strona 2 z 5 Fit the dependence T=f(L/2) by linear regression method, determine line pa- rameters: a, u(a), b, u(b). Using the slope value of the linear function determine g = 4+/a. Determine u(g), firstly deriving formula using the uncertainty propagation method. Properly round the final result. Finally, test the accordance of the obtained g with the literature value. The pendulum should be activated carefully. The fluctuations should take place in a vertical plane (the path of the pendulum's weight should be the arc of a circle, without deviations in the horizontal direction). The minimum length of the pendulum Imin depends on its construction, but in compli- ance with all recommendations and to ensure adequate measurement accuracy, it should not be less than approx. 30 cm. The maximum length Imax depends in principle on the place of suspension, but it should not be less than approx. 1 m. Measurements can be made for evenly spaced pendulum lengths from Imin to Imax with an increment of approx. (Imax - Imin) / (N-1). For the longest length of the pendulum, the minimum duration is NT = 10 oscillations. As the length of the pendulum is shortened, this number may be increased so that the duration of the measurement is approximately the same for each length. Measurements should be started and ended with the maximum devi- ation of the pendulum on the same side from the equilibrium position (passing through the equilibrium position is more difficult to catch). We repeat the measurements five times for each length of the pendulum. The measurements can be collected in the table: Lp. 1 2 3 Lp. 1 2 3 L, m L L2 NT NT2 L, m L t, s 1 The table should be included in the measurement card prepared following the applica- ble template. Additionally, we note the place and time of measurements on the card. Ad. 5. Data should be analyzed following the above-mentioned laboratory manual: Fill in the table: t11 t21 etc 2 L1/2 ,m1/2 u(L1/2),m1/2 L1/2 u(L1/2) t12 t22 3 t13 t23 tav, S t av etc 4 t14 t24 5 t15 t25 u(tav), S T = tav/NT, S u(tiav) T= t1a/ NT1 u(7), s u(T) Determine u(L) as the B type uncertainty resulting from the accuracy of the measuring tool used. Calculate u(L/2) firstly deriving proper formula using the uncertainty propagation method. Calculate tav applying the arytmethic mean. Determine u(tav), taking into account the type B uncertainty (including the reac- tion time) and the type A uncertainty calculating the standard deviation of the mean value multiplied by the Student-Fisher coefficient. Specify u(T) using the uncertainty propagation method. Using values from the table, prepare a graph of the dependence T= f(L/2) in- cluding uncertainty bars. Strona 3 z 5 this part of the folded page (above the black dashed line) should lie on the table this part of the folded page (below the black dotted line) should hang beyond the edge of the table in the background of the pendulum When swinging, the pendulum's thread should not be to the left of the left red line place to put the rod pendulum equilibriumt posi- tion (blue dashed line) fold along the black dashed line at right angle When swinging, the the pendulum 's thread should not be to the right of the right red line PFZ-T-M4-eng.
