Hello, I am really stuck on my physics course work and was wondering if you where able to help me. I have to calculate gravity using a compound pendulum, but i have 2 values for h because h1+h2=L i worked out h by doing h(squared)- Lh +k(squared)=0 i am using the formula T= 2(pie)(Square root) (k (squared)+(h squares)/ gh) Im stuck please help Jabeen |

I have to calculate gravity using a compound pendulum Have you looked at Kater's Pendulum? That should be a big enough hint to get you started ;) It's not a trivial problem BTW :( Al. p.s. Not sure that this is the right place to ask :) |

I have to calculate gravity using a compound pendulum No. This project is full of particle physicists :D I would (did) suggest she try Einstein@home as they like these sort of problems over there. But the deadline for handing in the project is passed now. :p and thanks ChertseyAl. That was a very good hint. I crunch therefore I am. |
