Re-roll two of the balls. Then choose
2 wires each of different thickness. Insert them into the balls.
Push both wires into the polystyrene block so that they stand upright
to the same height, e.g. 10 cm.
|
|
Hint ! Make
sure that you stick the wires in a new position in the block or
the experiment won't work very well.
|
Pull both balls back about 3 cm. Then let them go.
|
 |
Do the balls with the thicker or thinner
wires have the higher natural frequencies? (Answer)
|
Take the balls and wires out of the polystyrene
block and pull the wires out of the balls.
