Learning Objectives

Past the end of this section, you lot will exist able to:

State the forces that deed on a simple pendulum
Determine the angular frequency, frequency, and flow of a simple pendulum in terms of the length of the pendulum and the dispatch due to gravity
Define the period for a physical pendulum
Ascertain the period for a torsional pendulum

Pendulums are in common usage. Gramps clocks use a pendulum to keep time and a pendulum tin can be used to measure out the acceleration due to gravity. For pocket-sized displacements, a pendulum is a uncomplicated harmonic oscillator.

The Unproblematic Pendulum

A uncomplicated pendulum is defined to have a point mass, also known every bit the pendulum bob , which is suspended from a cord of length 50 with negligible mass ((Figure)). Here, the only forces acting on the bob are the force of gravity (i.e., the weight of the bob) and tension from the string. The mass of the string is assumed to be negligible every bit compared to the mass of the bob.

In the figure, a horizontal bar is shown. A string of length L extends from the bar at an angle theta counterclockwise from the vertical. The vertical direction is indicated by a dashed line extending down from where the string is attached to the bar. A circular bob of mass m is attached to the lower end of the string. The arc from the mass to the vertical is indicated by another dashed line and is a length s. A red arrow showing the time T of the oscillation of the mob is shown along the string line toward the bar. A coordinate system is shown near the bob with the positive y direction aligned with the string and pointing toward the pivot point and the positive x direction pointing tangent to the arc and away from the equilibrium position. An blue arrow from the bob toward the pivot, along the string, is labeled F sub T. A red arrow from the bob pointing down is labeled w = m g. A red arrow pointing tangent to the arc and toward equilibrium, in the minus x direction, is labeled minus m g sine theta. A red arrow at an angle theta counterclockwise from w is labeled minus m g cosine theta. — **Figure 15.20** A simple pendulum has a small-diameter bob and a string that has a very small mass merely is strong enough not to stretch appreciably. The linear displacement from equilibrium is s, the length of the arc. Also shown are the forces on the bob, which result in a internet forcefulness of
$\text{−}mg\text{sin}\,\theta$

toward the equilibrium position—that is, a restoring force.

Consider the torque on the pendulum. The strength providing the restoring torque is the component of the weight of the pendulum bob that acts forth the arc length. The torque is the length of the cord L times the component of the cyberspace force that is perpendicular to the radius of the arc. The minus sign indicates the torque acts in the reverse management of the angular displacement:

$\begin{array}{ccc}\hfill \tau & =\hfill & \text{−}L(mg\,\text{sin}\,\theta );\hfill \\ \hfill I\alpha & =\hfill & \text{−}L(mg\,\text{sin}\,\theta );\hfill \\ \hfill I\frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}& =\hfill & \text{−}L(mg\,\text{sin}\,\theta );\hfill \\ \hfill m{L}^{2}\frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}& =\hfill & \text{−}L(mg\,\text{sin}\,\theta );\hfill \\ \hfill \frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}& =\hfill & -\frac{g}{L}\text{sin}\,\theta .\hfill \end{array}$

The solution to this differential equation involves advanced calculus, and is beyond the scope of this text. Just note that for small angles (less than xv degrees),

$\text{sin}\,\theta$

and

$\theta$

differ past less than ane%, so we tin can use the small angle approximation

$\text{sin}\,\theta \approx \theta .$

The angle

$\theta$

describes the position of the pendulum. Using the small angle approximation gives an approximate solution for minor angles,

$\frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}=-\frac{g}{L}\theta .$

Considering this equation has the same course as the equation for SHM, the solution is easy to find. The angular frequency is

$\omega =\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}$

and the period is

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}.$

The menstruum of a simple pendulum depends on its length and the acceleration due to gravity. The period is completely contained of other factors, such as mass and the maximum displacement. As with uncomplicated harmonic oscillators, the period T for a pendulum is nearly independent of amplitude, especially if

$\theta$

is less than most

$15\text{°}.$

Even simple pendulum clocks can exist finely adjusted and remain accurate.

Notation the dependence of T on grand. If the length of a pendulum is precisely known, it can actually exist used to measure the acceleration due to gravity, as in the following instance.

Case

Measuring Dispatch due to Gravity by the Catamenia of a Pendulum

What is the acceleration due to gravity in a region where a simple pendulum having a length 75.000 cm has a period of 1.7357 s?

Strategy

We are asked to discover g given the menstruation T and the length L of a pendulum. We tin solve

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

for g, assuming only that the angle of deflection is less than

$15\text{°}$

Solution

Foursquare
$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

and solve for thousand:

$g=4{\pi }^{2}\frac{L}{{T}^{2}}.$
Substitute known values into the new equation:
$g=4{\pi }^{2}\frac{0.75000\,\text{m}}{{(1.7357\,\text{s})}^{2}}.$
Calculate to find yard:
$g=9.8281{\,\text{m/s}}^{2}.$

Significance

This method for determining g can be very accurate, which is why length and period are given to five digits in this case. For the precision of the approximation

$\text{sin}\,\theta \approx \theta$

to be better than the precision of the pendulum length and flow, the maximum displacement angle should be kept below about

$0.5\text{°}$

Check Your Agreement

An engineer builds two simple pendulums. Both are suspended from minor wires secured to the ceiling of a room. Each pendulum hovers two cm above the floor. Pendulum 1 has a bob with a mass of 10 kg. Pendulum 2 has a bob with a mass of 100 kg. Describe how the motion of the pendulums will differ if the bobs are both displaced by

$12\text{°}$

[reveal-respond q="fs-id1167131444820″]Show Solution[/reveal-answer]

[subconscious-respond a="fs-id1167131444820″]

The move of the pendulums will not differ at all because the mass of the bob has no effect on the motility of a unproblematic pendulum. The pendulums are only affected by the menstruation (which is related to the pendulum's length) and by the dispatch due to gravity.

Physical Pendulum

Any object tin oscillate like a pendulum. Consider a coffee mug hanging on a hook in the pantry. If the mug gets knocked, it oscillates back and forth like a pendulum until the oscillations die out. We have described a simple pendulum every bit a point mass and a string. A concrete pendulum is any object whose oscillations are similar to those of the simple pendulum, merely cannot be modeled as a bespeak mass on a string, and the mass distribution must be included into the equation of motion.

As for the simple pendulum, the restoring force of the physical pendulum is the strength of gravity. With the simple pendulum, the force of gravity acts on the middle of the pendulum bob. In the instance of the physical pendulum, the force of gravity acts on the centre of mass (CM) of an object. The object oscillates about a point O. Consider an object of a generic shape every bit shown in (Effigy).

A drawing of a physical pendulum. In the figure, the pendulum is an irregularly shaped object. The center of mass, C M, is a distance L from the pivot point, O. The center of mass traces a circular arc, centered at O. The line from O to L makes an angle theta counterclockwise from the vertical. Three forces are depicted by red arrows at the center of mass. The force m g points down. Its components are minus m g sine theta which points tangent to the arc traced by the center of mass, and m g cosine theta which points radially outward. — **Figure 15.21** A physical pendulum is any object that oscillates as a pendulum, merely cannot be modeled as a betoken mass on a string. The force of gravity acts on the heart of mass (CM) and provides the restoring force that causes the object to oscillate. The minus sign on the component of the weight that provides the restoring force is present because the force acts in the opposite management of the increasing bending
$\theta$

.

When a physical pendulum is hanging from a point but is costless to rotate, it rotates because of the torque applied at the CM, produced by the component of the object's weight that acts tangent to the motion of the CM. Taking the counterclockwise direction to be positive, the component of the gravitational force that acts tangent to the motility is

$\text{−}mg\,\text{sin}\,\theta$

. The minus sign is the effect of the restoring force interim in the reverse direction of the increasing angle. Remember that the torque is equal to

$\overset{\to }{\tau }=\overset{\to }{r}\,×\,\overset{\to }{F}$

. The magnitude of the torque is equal to the length of the radius arm times the tangential component of the force applied,

$|\tau |=rF\text{sin}\,\theta$

. Here, the length L of the radius arm is the altitude between the point of rotation and the CM. To analyze the motion, start with the net torque. Similar the uncomplicated pendulum, consider only small angles so that

$\text{sin}\,\theta \approx \theta$

. Recall from Fixed-Centrality Rotation on rotation that the internet torque is equal to the moment of inertia

$I=\int {r}^{2}dm$

times the angular dispatch

$\alpha ,$

where

$\alpha =\frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}$

$I\alpha ={\tau }_{\text{net}}=L(\text{−}mg)\text{sin}\,\theta .$

Using the small bending approximation and rearranging:

$\begin{array}{ccc}\hfill I\alpha & =\hfill & \text{−}L(mg)\theta ;\hfill \\ \hfill I\frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}& =\hfill & \text{−}L(mg)\theta ;\hfill \\ \hfill \frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}& =\hfill & \text{−}(\frac{mgL}{I})\theta .\hfill \end{array}$

Over again, the equation says that the second time derivative of the position (in this example, the angle) equals minus a constant

$(-\frac{mgL}{I})$

times the position. The solution is

$\theta (t)=\text{Θ}\text{cos}(\omega t+\varphi ),$

where

$\text{Θ}$

is the maximum angular displacement. The athwart frequency is

$\omega =\sqrt{\frac{mgL}{I}}.$

The period is therefore

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{mgL}}.$

Note that for a simple pendulum, the moment of inertia is

$I=\int {r}^{2}dm=m{L}^{2}$

and the flow reduces to

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Example

Reducing the Swaying of a Skyscraper

In extreme conditions, skyscrapers can sway up to 2 meters with a frequency of up to 20.00 Hz due to high winds or seismic action. Several companies have adult physical pendulums that are placed on the top of the skyscrapers. As the skyscraper sways to the correct, the pendulum swings to the left, reducing the sway. Assuming the oscillations have a frequency of 0.50 Hz, pattern a pendulum that consists of a long axle, of constant density, with a mass of 100 metric tons and a pivot point at ane cease of the beam. What should be the length of the beam?

The figure depicts a tall building with a column on its roof and a long rod of length L that swings on a pivot point near the top of the column.

Strategy

Nosotros are asked to notice the length of the physical pendulum with a known mass. Nosotros kickoff need to find the moment of inertia of the axle. We can then employ the equation for the period of a concrete pendulum to find the length.

Solution

Observe the moment of inertia for the CM:
Use the parallel axis theorem to find the moment of inertia about the signal of rotation:
$I={I}_{\text{CM}}+{\frac{L}{4}}^{2}M=\frac{1}{12}M{L}^{2}+\frac{1}{4}M{L}^{2}=\frac{1}{3}M{L}^{2}.$
The period of a concrete pendulum has a period of
$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{mgL}}$

. Use the moment of inertia to solve for the length L:

$\begin{array}{ccc}\hfill T& =\hfill & 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{MgL}}=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{1}{3}M{L}^{2}}{MgL}}=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{3g}};\hfill \\ \hfill L& =\hfill & 3g{(\frac{T}{2\pi })}^{2}=3(9.8\frac{\text{m}}{{\text{s}}^{2}}){(\frac{2\,\text{s}}{2\pi })}^{2}=2.98\,\text{m}\text{.}\hfill \end{array}$

Significance

There are many ways to reduce the oscillations, including modifying the shape of the skyscrapers, using multiple physical pendulums, and using tuned-mass dampers.

Torsional Pendulum

A torsional pendulum consists of a rigid trunk suspended by a low-cal wire or spring ((Figure)). When the body is twisted some small maximum bending

$(\text{Θ})$

and released from rest, the trunk oscillates betwixt

$(\theta =+\text{Θ})$

and

$(\theta =\text{−}\,\text{Θ})$

. The restoring torque is supplied past the shearing of the string or wire.

A torsional pendulum is illustrated in this figure. The pendulum consists of a horizontal disk that hangs by a string from the ceiling. The string attaches to the disk at its center, at point O. The disk and string can oscillate in a horizontal plane between angles plus Theta and minus Theta. The equilibrium position is between these, at theta = 0. — Figure 15.22 A torsional pendulum consists of a rigid body suspended by a string or wire. The rigid body oscillates between
$\theta =+\text{Θ}$

and

$\theta =\text{−}\text{Θ}$

.

The restoring torque can exist modeled equally being proportional to the angle:

$\tau =\text{−}\kappa \theta .$

The variable kappa

$(\kappa )$

is known as the torsion abiding of the wire or string. The minus sign shows that the restoring torque acts in the opposite direction to increasing angular displacement. The net torque is equal to the moment of inertia times the angular acceleration:

*** QuickLaTeX cannot compile formula: \[\begin{array}{}\\ I\frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{ii}}=\text{−}\kappa \theta ;\hfill \\ \frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}=-\frac{\kappa }{I}\theta .\hfill \end{assortment}\]  *** Error message: Missing # inserted in alignment preamble. leading text: \[\begin{array}{} Missing $ inserted. leading text: ...array}{}\\ I\frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}} Missing $ inserted. leading text: ...array}{}\\ I\frac{{d}^{ii}\theta }{d{t}^{two}} Missing $ inserted. leading text: ...array}{}\\ I\frac{{d}^{2}\theta }{d{t}^{2}} Extra }, or forgotten $. leading text: ...assortment}{}\\ I\frac{{d}^{two}\theta }{d{t}^{two}} Package inputenc Error: Unicode character − (U+2212) leading text: ...I\frac{{d}^{ii}\theta }{d{t}^{2}}=\text{−} Missing } inserted. leading text: ...}}=\text{−}\kappa \theta ;\hfill \\ \frac Actress }, or forgotten $. leading text: ...}}=\text{−}\kappa \theta ;\hfill \\ \frac Missing } inserted. leading text: ...}}=\text{−}\kappa \theta ;\hfill \\ \frac

This equation says that the second time derivative of the position (in this example, the bending) equals a negative constant times the position. This looks very similar to the equation of motion for the SHM

$\frac{{d}^{2}x}{d{t}^{2}}=-\frac{k}{m}x$

, where the period was found to exist

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

. Therefore, the period of the torsional pendulum can be found using

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{\kappa }}.$

The units for the torsion constant are

$[\kappa ]=\text{N-m}=(\text{kg}\frac{\text{m}}{{\text{s}}^{2}})\text{m}=\text{kg}\,\frac{{\text{m}}^{2}}{{\text{s}}^{2}}$

and the units for the moment of inertial are

$[I]={\text{kg-m}}^{2},$

which show that the unit for the period is the second.

Instance

Measuring the Torsion Constant of a Cord

A rod has a length of

$l=0.30\,\text{m}$

and a mass of four.00 kg. A string is attached to the CM of the rod and the system is hung from the ceiling ((Figure)). The rod is displaced ten degrees from the equilibrium position and released from residuum. The rod oscillates with a menses of 0.5 s. What is the torsion constant

$\kappa$

Figure a shows a horizontal rod, length 30.0 centimeters and mass 4.00 kilograms, hanging by a string from the ceiling. The string attaches to the middle of the rod. The rod rotates with the string in the horizontal plane. Figure b shows the rod with the details needed for finding its moment of inertia. The rod's length, end to end, is L and its total mass is M. It has linear mass density lambda equals d m d x which also equals M over L. A small segment of the rod that has length d x at a distance x from the center of the rod is highlighted. The string is attached to the rod at the center of the rod. — **Figure 15.23** (a) A rod suspended by a string from the ceiling. (b) Finding the rod's moment of inertia.

Strategy

We are asked to observe the torsion constant of the cord. Nosotros first need to observe the moment of inertia.

Solution

Detect the moment of inertia for the CM:
${I}_{\text{CM}}=\int {x}^{2}dm={\int }_{\text{−}L\text{/}2}^{+L\text{/}2}{x}^{2}\lambda dx=\lambda {[\frac{{x}^{3}}{3}]}_{\text{−}L\text{/}2}^{+L\text{/}2}=\lambda \frac{2{L}^{3}}{24}=(\frac{M}{L})\frac{2{L}^{3}}{24}=\frac{1}{12}M{L}^{2}.$
Summate the torsion constant using the equation for the catamenia:
$\begin{array}{ccc}\hfill T& =\hfill & 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{\kappa }};\hfill \\ \hfill \kappa & =\hfill & I{(\frac{2\pi }{T})}^{2}=(\frac{1}{12}M{L}^{2}){(\frac{2\pi }{T})}^{2};\hfill \\ & =\hfill & (\frac{1}{12}(4.00\,\text{kg}){(0.30\,\text{m})}^{2}){(\frac{2\pi }{0.50\,\text{s}})}^{2}=4.73\,\text{N}·\text{m}\text{.}\hfill \end{array}$

Significance

Like the strength constant of the system of a cake and a spring, the larger the torsion constant, the shorter the menstruum.

Conceptual Questions

Pendulum clocks are made to run at the right rate by adjusting the pendulum's length. Suppose yous move from one city to another where the dispatch due to gravity is slightly greater, taking your pendulum clock with you, will yous have to lengthen or shorten the pendulum to continue the correct time, other factors remaining constant? Explain your respond.

A pendulum clock works by measuring the period of a pendulum. In the springtime the clock runs with perfect time, but in the summer and winter the length of the pendulum changes. When most materials are heated, they aggrandize. Does the clock run too fast or too slow in the summer? What virtually the winter?

The period of the pendulum is

$T=2\pi \sqrt{L\text{/}g}.$

In summer, the length increases, and the period increases. If the flow should exist one second, but menstruum is longer than one second in the summer, it will oscillate fewer than sixty times a minute and clock will run slow. In the wintertime information technology will run fast.
