PROCEDURE:
1. The dimension for the wooden pendulum is taken ( thickness, width and length )
2. Vee support is inserted into the hole of the wooden pendulum.
3. The wooden pendulum is hanging at the testing apparatus to swing it.
4. The wooden pendulum was swing from right at 15o , and time for 10 complete cycle
was taken.
5. Step 4 was repeated for swinging the pendulum from left.
6. Step 2 to 5 was repeated for cylindrical support for another hole of wooden
pendulum.
THEORY:
Physical pendulum
In this case, a rigid body – instead of point mass - is pivoted to oscillate as shown in the
figure. There is no requirement of string. As a result, there is no tension involved in this case.
Besides these physical ramifications, the working of compound pendulum is essentially same
as that of simple pendulum except in two important aspects:
Gravity acts through center of mass of the rigid body. Hence, length of pendulum
used in equation is equal to linear distance between pivot and center of mass (“h”).
The moment of inertia of the rigid body about point suspension is not equal to “mL2”
* as in the case of simple pendulum. The time period of compound pendulum,
therefore, is given by :

In case we know MI of the rigid body, we can evaluate above expression of time
period for the physical pendulum. For illustration, let us consider a uniform rigid
rod, pivoted from a frame as shown in the figure. Clearly, center of mass is at a
distance “L/2” from the point of suspension :
h= L/2
Now, MI of the rigid rod about its center is:
We are, however, required to evaluate MI of the rod about the point of suspension, i.e. “O”.
Applying parallel axes theorem,
Putting in the equation of time period, we have:

U N I V E R S I T I T E K N O L O G I M A R A A p p l i e d M e c h a n i c s L a b (MEC4 2 4 ) F a c u l t y O f M e c h a n i c a l E n g i n e e r i n g
The important thing to note about this relation is that time period is still independent of mass
of the rigid body. However, time period is not independent of mass distribution of the rigid
body. A change in shape or size or change in mass distribution will change MI of the rigid
body about point of suspension. This, in turn, will change time period.
Further, we should note that physical pendulum is an effective device to measure “g”. As a
matter of fact, this device is used extensively in gravity surveys around the world. We only
need to determine time period or frequency to determine the value of “g”. Squaring and
rearranging,
Point of oscillation
We can think of physical pendulum as if it were a simple pendulum. For this, we can consider
the mass of the rigid body to be concentrated at a single point as in the case of simple
pendulum such that time periods of two pendulums are same. Let this point be at a linear
distance “Lo “from the point of suspension. Here,
The point defined by the vertical distance, "Lo “, from the point of suspension is called point of
oscillation of the physical pendulum. Clearly, point of oscillation will change if point of
suspension is changed.

2

So,

= 0.10895 kg.m3 (theory)
So,
Percentage error = 0.1115 – 0.10895 x 100%
0.1115
= 2.287%
IG1 = 0.035 kg.m2 (experiment)
= 0.03272 kg.m2 (theory)
So,
Percentage error = 0.035 – 0.03272 x 100%
0.035
= 6.514%
At point 2:
I02 = 0.1134 kg.m2 (experiment)
= 0.1157 kg.m2 (theory)So,
Percentage error = 0.1134 – 0.1157 x 100%
0.1116
= 2.061%
IG2 = 0.0368 kg.m2 (experiment)
= 0.03202 kg.m2 (theory)
So,
Percentage error = 0.0368 – 0.03202 x 100%
0.0368
= 12.989%

DISCUSSION:
During the experiment, we found out there are errors identified that affects the results. The
value k is different compare to the theoretical value because of errors as below;
Human error – This experiment is conducted by human so there must be some error
in terms of readings and procedure. Parallax error is one of the most common errors
in conducting the experiment and then, the handling of stopwatch timing is not
accurate.
Device error – The apparatus used is not reliable because one of the parts of the
apparatus (protractor) is gone but the angle still can be obtained by using the
protractor which is drawn by pencil.
Environment factors –This factor slightly can be taken as a minor cause of the error.
The experiment been ran out in a very conducive laboratory but possibilities of the
present of blowing wind must be considered.
CONCLUSION:
From this experiment, we obtained the experimental value is slightly differs to the theoretical
value. From the discussion above, we found out the reading is not accurate. Minimize the
parallax error (reading been taken parallel to the eyes). The experiment is best conducted in
a vacuum. Precising the value by taking readings more than 2 or 3 times (during handling the
stopwatch) and get the average. To obtain a better experiment result, a new set of apparatus
must be replaced with the unreliable one. Since the percentage error is less than 15%, we
can conclude the experiment is succeed and the objective of the experiment is achieved.
