The dance of Pendulums- Pendulum waves (Video)

by Coffee Table Science

The beauty of science and the conception of art. Pendulum Waves are a great example of a kinetics sculpture working on simple harmonics.

Whats brilliant about these structures is that it runs on simple physics, that takes 15 balls and suspends them at different, well calculated lengths. The Pendulums are placed in increasing order of length of the pendulum, so while the longest completes 51 oscillations in 60 seconds, the shortest takes completes 65, producing a dance that is a visual delight. ENJOY!
