About This Item

Description

Fairly complex physics can make a stunning demonstration of a coupled harmonic oscillator. When pulled back, this device will oscillate in the vertical direction and then the energy will stop the vertical oscillation and turn to rotational oscillation (and back again). In simple terms what is happening is that due to the helical spring, when the pendulum bob moves up and down, energy leaks inch from the translational mode to the rotational mode...creating this stunning effect. Wilberforce Pendulum is great for either an executive's desk or an advanced and stunning physics demonstration; needs to be mounted at least 1 meter from any surface. Stand sold separately.
