Kater's Reversible Pendulum Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : ILS-AM-10911
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Kater's Reversible Pendulum (Product ID: 10911) as part of its applied mechanics range. A compound pendulum with two knife edges for measuring the acceleration due to gravity accurately.
Quick Answer
The pendulum is a brass bar 120 cm long and 1.2 cm across with pointed ends, carrying two sets of adjustable knife edges, large and small brass weights and two similar hardwood weights. The weights are moved until the periods of swing about the two knife edges are equal; the distance between the knife edges is then the length L of the equivalent simple pendulum, and g = 4π²L/T². It comes with a cast iron wall bracket. Versions with a stainless steel rod and brass weights, or a chrome-plated steel rod, are available, as is a stand about 52 inches high that suits all types.
