Simple pendulums fifteen coupled lengths ranging monotonically increasing together and produce a waveform which varies with time
One might call this kinetic art getting a beautiful choreography with dance of the pendulums.
How does:?
The period of one complete cycle of the dance is 60 seconds.
The longer length of the pendulum has been adjusted so that it runs 51 fluctuated during this period 60 seconds.
The length of each pendulum is shorter than the previous, finely tuned to perform an oscillation in the same period. Therefore, the pendulum 15 (shortest of all) performed 65 oscillations.
A nice experiment to explain theoretical physics in a practical and entertaining
