  2. Elastic pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_pendulum

    In physics and mathematics, in the area of dynamical systems, an elastic pendulum [1] [2] (also called spring pendulum [3] [4] or swinging spring) is a physical system where a piece of mass is connected to a spring so that the resulting motion contains elements of both a simple pendulum and a one-dimensional spring-mass system. [2]

    Motion of an elastic pendulum - you can see the effect of overlapping vibrations of different frequencies (a composite of the vibrations of a simple and a spring pendulum) Polish Ruchu wahadła elastycznego - widać efekt nakładania się drgań o różnych częstotliwościach (złożenie drgań wahadła prostego i sprężynowego)

  4. Pendulum (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendulum_(mechanics)

    A pendulum is a body suspended from a fixed support such that it freely swings back and forth under the influence of gravity. When a pendulum is displaced sideways from its resting, equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will accelerate it back towards the equilibrium position.

  5. Pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendulum

    "Simple gravity pendulum" model assumes no friction or air resistance. A pendulum is a device made of a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. [1] When a pendulum is displaced sideways from its resting, equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will accelerate it back toward the equilibrium position.

  6. Effective mass (spring–mass system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_mass_(spring...

    The parameter stands for in an ideal pendulum, and in a compound pendulum, where is the length of the pendulum, is the total mass of the system, is the distance from the pivot point (the point the pendulum is suspended from) to the pendulum's centre-of-mass, and is the moment of inertia of the system with respect to an axis that goes through ...

  7. Torsion spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_spring

    The torsion pendulum used in torsion pendulum clocks is a wheel-shaped weight suspended from its center by a wire torsion spring. The weight rotates about the axis of the spring, twisting it, instead of swinging like an ordinary pendulum. The force of the spring reverses the direction of rotation, so the wheel oscillates back and forth, driven ...

  8. Newton's cradle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_cradle

    The simple effect from two same-mass efficiently elastic colliding objects constrained to a straight path is the basis of the effect seen in the cradle and gives an approximate solution to all its activities. For a sequence of same-mass elastic objects constrained to a straight path, the effect continues to each successive object.

  9. Double pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_pendulum

    A double pendulum consists of two pendulums attached end to end.. In physics and mathematics, in the area of dynamical systems, a double pendulum, also known as a chaotic pendulum, is a pendulum with another pendulum attached to its end, forming a simple physical system that exhibits rich dynamic behavior with a strong sensitivity to initial conditions.
