This simulation shows a simple pendulum operating under gravity. For small oscillations the pendulum is linear, but it is non-linear for larger oscillations. You can change parameters in the simulation such as mass, gravity, and friction (damping).

A simple pendulum is one which can be considered to be a point mass suspended from a string or rod of negligible mass. It is a resonant system with a single resonant frequency. For small amplitudes, the period of such a pendulum can be approximated by:

A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so it can swing freely. When a pendulum is displaced from its resting equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will ...

Consider a simple pendulum without friction, swinging through a small angle. The state of its motion at any time is defined completely by its position and velocity at that time. If we know those values we may calculate its position and velocity for any time future or past.

Figure 13.4: The Simple Pendulum ... Since the restoring force is proportional to the displacement, the pendulum is a simple harmonic oscillator with ``spring constant'' k = mg/L . The period of a simple pendulum is therefore:

A "bob" or "simple" pendulum is a pendulum consisting of a single spherical (or point) mass attached to a wire of negligible weight. A "physical" pendulum has extended size and is a generalization of the bob pendulum. ... The equation of motion of a physical pendulum can be found from the torque on it,

Simple Pendulu ... Our simple pendulum is a massive object hung from a stand by a string. Its steady back-and-forth motion serves to introduce the kind of periodic behavior associated with waves.
