Period of a Pendulum app for iPhone and iPad

There’s a new, engaging way to learn and apply your knowledge of science in a dynamic environment. Learn by doing and see the impact of being involved in what you learn.

Explore the variables that define motion of a pendulum. Change each variable in a dynamic simulator and see the results. Make predictions, and determine if they were correct using the simulator.

• Explore how the mass, length, and release angle of a pendulum affects its motion.
• Form graphs about how the motion of a pendulum is affected by changing length and gravitational acceleration.
• Make predictions before exploring the simulator.

App features:
• Dynamic simulator can model the effect of any combination of different variables.
• Watch engaging animations that explain the content.
• Get step-by-step instructions that guide you through various activities.
• Test your knowledge with interactive tasks and quizzes.
