Experiment #2: Forces
... acceleration due to gravity can be determined from the measured elevation of the track and the acceleration of the glider by the following expression, in which the angle of elevation is represented by θ: sin(θ) = |h2 - h1| / |X2 - X1| and g = a/sin(θ) 2. Raw Data Tables Part A ...

... of time and the slight rotation of the pendulum during oscillation. In was concluded that when the length of a simple pendulum increases, the period of oscillation also increases. And there are only two factors that affect the period, the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity ...
