D5-13: FOCAULT PENDULUM - MODEL
Additional Info
- ID Code: D5-13
- Purpose: Model the Foucault pendulum
- Description: The circular base can be rotated while the pendulum oscillates in a fixed plane in the frame of reference of the laboratory, thus showing the apparent rotation of the plane of the pendulum when viewed in the frame of reference of its base.
- Availability: Available
- References: REFERENCES: (PIRA 1E20.20)
- Loc codes: D5, OS10
