Product Code : SCL-FAM-14561
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Bob Set Of 6 Metals (Product ID: 14561) as part of its forces and motion range. It is a set of six equal-diameter spherical bobs in different metals for pendulum and density comparisons.
Quick Answer
All six bobs share one diameter, so their masses differ only because the metals have different densities. Hung on equal lengths of string, they swing with practically the same period, showing that for small swings a simple pendulum's period depends on its length and on g, not on the bob's mass (T = 2π√(L/g), with L measured to the centre of the bob). Each bob has a threaded hole or fixed hook for the string and a polished or powder-coated finish, and the set is stored in a wooden or plastic box. A typical set is brass, copper, aluminium, iron, lead and steel; wash hands after handling the lead bob.
