1- Click on lab screen and use the length controller to
control the length of the pendulum (I), set 1 =1m.
Record the length in table 1.
2- Control the angle (click on the mass and drag
along the protractor to fix the angel), the angle
must be very small (<10). (0=8°) and click on

3- Click on period timer (on the lower left corner of
the lab screen) to measure the periodic time of one
full oscillation (T). Record the periodic time in
table.
4- Repeat the previous steps for different lengths of (1) as shown in the table 1. Record your data
Data Analysis:
1. Calculate the square of the periodic time (T²).
2. Use Excel sofware to plot a graph of T? versus l, T? as the ordinate and I as the abscissa.
3. Use the equation of the graph to determine its slope, use the slope of the line to calculate the
acceleration due to gravity g which is given by:

This activity consists of two parts.
Part one: Simple Pendulum.
Part two: Mass on a spring.
To be familiar with simple harmonic motion, periodic time of an oscillation, angular velocity, the
parameters that affect the oscillatory motion (length of the pendulum, the mass on a spring, the angle
with the equilibrium position for simple pendulum and the distance from equilibrium position for mass
on a spring) using Phet simulation, kindly, open the following links and play with them.
For Simple Pendulum follow the link below.

Part I
Simple Harmonic Motion
(Simple Pendulum)
Objectives:
In this experiment the student can observe and study the periodic motion in a plane and investigate the
relation between the period of a simple pendulum and its length. Also, the student can determine the
acceleration due to gravity by this experiment.
Theory:
An ideal pendulum is a point mass (m) suspended at one end of a massless string with the other end of
the string fixed as shown in Fig. 1.
The motion of the system takes place in a vertical plane when the mass
(m) is released from an initial angle 0. The angular amplitude 0 is defined
by the angle which the string makes with the vertical.
The weight of the pendulum acts downward, and it can be resolved into
two components. The component (mgcose) is equal in magnitude to the
tension in the string. The other component acts tangent to the arc along
which the mass (m) moves. This component provides the force which mgsin6
drives the system. In equation form: the force (F) along the direction of
mgcose

motion is:
