Abstract
This practice have an analysis on how a simple pendulum acts upon a force. For this is given a problem in which it is
necessary to obtain the rotational motion of the pendulum, as well as a simulation that shows up the behavior that the body
have when a force is applied on it. This simulation is able with Matlab, showing then the behavior of the rotational motion
equations that will be gotten.
INTRODUCTION
= !
So as shown in the figure we have two forces acting
on the pendulum, which is the mass, and the tension of the
string. This tension doesnt affect since there is attached to a
pivot, which will allow the pendulum to move freely. So applying
Practica 1
Knowing that:
! =
! = ! =
We will have then:
=
! = 1
3. CONCLUSIONS
This simulation appears to represent the motion of the
pendulum, since it is hanging on a pivot, and its motion will be
as a senoidal wave, such as Figure 4 or 5. With the use of
Matlab we can understand the behavior of this type of bodys, by
turning the behavior we get on a simple equation, into a more
visual understanding such as the graphs offered by Simulink.
