I need some help for the verification of an assignment about pendulums

AI Thread Summary
Django is seeking assistance for a physics assignment on pendulums, specifically to verify his results with someone from a different country with varying gravitational force. He requests help in building a DIY pendulum using inexpensive materials and filming the process while making a sling. Django also asks for the period and length of the pendulum to be calculated using the formula provided, incorporating local gravitational acceleration. He emphasizes the need for the video to mention that it is made for him and his classmate Rens to avoid issues of plagiarism. The discussion highlights the importance of collaboration in educational assignments.

Hello, my name is Django and I live in the Netherlands. I've got an assignment for physics about pendulums and part of this assignment is that I need to verify my result with someone else in a country with a different gravitational force (the gravitational force were I live is 9.813 N/m2). I wanted ask you whether you'd want to help me with this.
If you want to help you should build a DIY pendulum (with some cheap and easy to find materials) and film it while you make a sling.

After this I need you to fill in this formula:

T = the period in seconds (for the swing)
l = the length of the pendulum in meters (as you can see in the picture)
g = the acceleration due to gravity in m/s2

If you would help me with this I'd be very thankful!
Cheers,
Django van der Plas

PS.
Would you please say in the video that you make it for me and Rens, so I can prove that I haven't copied it from somewhere? Thanks!

Welcome to the PF. :smile:

Do you attend the same school as this student? https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/calculating-gravity.947845/

Yes, thank you, I couldn't find the thread! But nevertheless, I still need someone to help me as well, since I don't think our teacher will accept the exact same results :wink:
 

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
