Description The torsion pendulum after Pohl can be used to investigate free or forced harmonic rotational oscillations. An electromagnetic eddy current brake damps these oscillations to a greater or lesser extent, depending on the set current. The torsion pendulum is excited to forced oscillations by means of a motor-driven eccentric rod. The aim of the first experiment is to investigate free harmonic rotational oscillations of the type f(t) = f0 · cosvt · e–d · t where v = öv2 0 – d2 v0: characteristic frequency of torsion pendulum To distinguish between oscillation and creepage, the damping constant F is varied to find the current I0 which corresponds to the aperiodic limiting case. In the oscillation case, the angular frequency v is determined for various damping levels from the oscillation period T and the damping constant d by means of the ratio fn +1 = e– d · T fn 2 of two sequential oscillation amplitudes. Using the relationship v2 = v20 – d2 we can determine the characteristic frequency v0. In the next experiment (P1.5.3.3), the torsion pendulum is excited to oscillations with the frequency v by means of a harmonically variable angular momentum. To illustrate the resonance behavior, the oscillation amplitudes determined for various damping levels are plotted as a function of v2 and compared with the theoretical curve f0 =M0 ·1I ö(v2 – v20)2 + d2 · v2 I: moment of inertia of torsion pendulum
