Could anyone with any experience in this please give me a few links or some information on it.

Thank you all :biggrin:

I've not experimented with the Wilberforce Pendulum before, so I cannot tell you anything, but what I suggest is to try goggling "Wilberforce Pendulum". I tried that, and it gave me quite a number of links, though most are no more informative than the one above.
 
The page that you linked has just about everything you could possibly need? What else do you expect to find? It is to bad that his video clips do not seem to work.
 
Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
