Part 1: To calculate the period of a ring while oscillating through a small angle. This will then be compared with the experimental value obtained by using the period timing function of logger pro.
Procedure:
Part 1: The inner and outer diameter were measured and the mass was measured. From this, the moment of inertia was calculated when the ring was rotating about the small notch, which is halfway between the inner and outer diameters. The moment of inertia was calculated. The ring was then hung from a knife edge and a small tape flag was attached to the bottom of the ring. A photogate was used with the oscillation timer from logger pro. The flag broke the beam of the photogate and signaled the timer to count 1 oscillation for every second time the beam was broken.
