Two of these devices are combined to build a harmonograph, which can be used to draw Lissajous [lees-ah-zhoo] figures.
Two of these devices are combined to build a harmonograph, which can be used to draw Lissajous [lees-ah-zhoo] figures. The double rod types of these objects are often used to demonstrate chaotic motion, while a set of these in a row make up a Newton's cradle. One of these was used to demonstrate the rotation of the Earth by Frenchman LÃ©on Foucault. Derivations of the most common formulas associated with these objects approximate that theta equals the sine of theta for small oscillations. Name these devices whose period varies with the square root of its length and which consist of a mass able to swing back and forth.
