Key Points
This wooden pendulum model is built for classroom demonstrations of the relationship between length and period. The blue adjustable bob makes it easy for students to measure how changes in string length affect timing, while the sturdy wooden construction supports regular use in teaching settings. The included guide helps standardize the release angle for consistent results while keeping the motion in two dimensions to reduce variable factors 🪄.

Usage Recommendations
Designed for educational use, this pendulum model helps students observe how the period changes as the length increases or decreases. The rigid body design allows smooth motion in two dimensions, which helps focus attention on key concepts without extra variables. A clear instruction manual is included to support both teachers and students during activities and experiments. For best results, ensure the release angle remains small and uniform and use the adjustable bob to document measurements over multiple trials. If you’re teaching scheduling experiments or timing fundamentals, this model provides a tangible, repeatable reference 🧪.
