Foucault PendulumFoucaultin heiluriRotation of the pendulum period is calculated on the wrong basis. Just like the pendulum would not be relevant what ever the formula gives for times. The pendulum has named after the name of Leon Foucault. The simple pendulum, consisting of a point mass suspended by a massless, unstrechable string. The first experiment demonstrated the rotation of the earth in 1851, Paris Pantheon Dome. The plane of the pendulum's swing rotated clockwise, making a full circle in 32,7 hours. 360 degrees / 32,7 hours = 11,009 degrees per hour. The number of hours is greater than the 24 hours since the pendulum is not located in the North Pole. ф = latitudes from equator to the north and south ω = 360 sin ф /day ω = 360 x sin *48.84625° ω = 271° => ω = 271° / 24 Hrs ω = 11.294° (31.88 hours) The formula is not accurate, because it does not include the value of friction (time dilation) 1,03. Even this simple device is not a perpetual motion machine as the test showed. (32.7 hours/31.88 hours = 1.03) Foucault's experiment in more detail, for example, to calculate. ω = 360 sin ф /day / 1.03 ω = 360 x sin *48.84625° / 1.03 ω = 263.1657° => ω = 263.1657° / 24 Hrs ω = 10.96° (32.85 hours) *48.84625° Location from the photo. 21.6.2018*8:00 (965 - 748) |
