  3. Cavendish experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavendish_experiment

    For the first 3 experiments the period was about 15 minutes and for the next 14 experiments the period was half of that, about 7.5 minutes. The period changed because after the third experiment Cavendish put in a stiffer wire. The torsion coefficient could be calculated from this and the mass and dimensions of the balance.

    A spherometer is an instrument used for the precise measurement of the radius of curvature of a curved surface. Originally, these instruments were primarily used by opticians to measure the curvature of the surface of a lens .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_clock

    Lens clock. A lens clock is a mechanical dial indicator that is used to measure the dioptric power of a lens.It is a specialized version of a spherometer.A lens clock measures the curvature of a surface, but gives the result as an optical power in diopters, assuming the lens is made of a material with a particular refractive index.
