Oscillations bounded by the simple pendulum and the oscillating rigid rod

Physics Education 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The oscillation periods bounded by a simple pendulum and an oscillating rigid rod are illustrated using a multiple pendulum. Oscillation periods between these two limits are obtained. A theoretical approach using the Lagrangian formalism and the set up of three simple experiments are presented in order to probe our approach.
