This is neat how the waves go in order then out then back in and out and back in!

A Citadel Physics Wave Pendulum is a type of pendulum that demonstrates the principles of wave motion and energy transfer. It consists of a series of connected pendulums that can be set into motion to create a visually striking wave-like effect.
The pendulums in a Citadel Physics Wave Pendulum are connected by strings and are carefully calibrated to have different periods of oscillation, creating a chain reaction when one pendulum is set into motion. The energy from the initial pendulum is transferred to the rest of the pendulums, creating a wave-like pattern.
Citadel Physics Wave Pendulums are often used in educational settings to demonstrate concepts such as wave motion, energy transfer, and resonance. They can also be used in art installations or as a decorative piece.
There are many DIY tutorials available online for making a Citadel Physics Wave Pendulum using simple materials such as string, pendulum bobs, and a sturdy base. However, it is important to carefully follow instructions and take safety precautions when constructing and using a pendulum.
Yes, there are a few safety precautions to keep in mind when using a Citadel Physics Wave Pendulum. It is important to have a sturdy base and secure the pendulum string to prevent it from swinging too far and causing injury. It is also important to handle the pendulum carefully and not let it swing too high or too fast. It is recommended to use protective gear such as safety glasses when using a pendulum with heavy pendulum bobs.
