To determine the value of g at a place by means of Kater's reversible pendulum

  • The Kater’s Reversible Pendulum Apparatus is a precision physics laboratory instrument designed to determine the acceleration due to gravity (g) at a particular location using the reversible pendulum method. It consists of a rigid pendulum bar fitted with two knife edges and adjustable masses, allowing the pendulum to oscillate about two different horizontal axes.
  • By measuring and comparing the time periods of oscillation about both knife edges and adjusting the movable mass to obtain equal or nearly equal time periods, students can determine the equivalent length of the pendulum and calculate the local value of gravitational acceleration. The experiment demonstrates the principles of compound pendulum motion, oscillations, and experimental measurement of gravity.
  • Ideal for undergraduate physics laboratories, colleges, universities, and engineering institutions, Kater’s Reversible Pendulum provides practical experience in precision measurements, oscillatory motion, and classical mechanics.

Product Description

Experiment: To determine the value of g at a place by means of Kater's reversible pendulum

 

Kater’s pendulum is a compound pendulum based on the principle that the center of suspension and center of oscillation are interchangeable. The movable cylinders, knife edges and the metallic weight are so adjusted such that the time periods of the pendulum about the two knife edges situated asymmetrically with respect to the center of gravity are exactly equal.

Specifications:

  • Product Name: Kater’s Reversible Pendulum Apparatus
  • Experiment: Determination of acceleration due to gravity (g) at a given place.
