    What Are the Physics Behind a Twisting Pendulum-Like 2D Object?

    I've successfully been able to simulate e pendulum (wow!). Now I want something slighly more complicated (at least I think it is). Suppose I take some 2d-object, for instance a square. Somewhere on the square I make a hole, and then I hang it on the wall on a nail. Then I move it a bit and let...

    Move Pendulum: Forces, Positions & Arbitrary Movements

    Thanks, any good links? Calculus is no problem... Actually I don't need to get too much and deep information, this is just something I do for fun as a graphical effect

    Move Pendulum: Forces, Positions & Arbitrary Movements

    I'm doing some computer graphics and I'm pretty new to physics/mechanics. Right now I'm simulating a pendulum. But now I want to be able to move the pendulum to, the point to which the string is connected (for instance if I hold the pendulum between my fingers and move my hand). Now which forces...
