Torsion pendulum
Principles
Oscillations (and wave) phenomena are well known due to ϕ0
their presence everywhere in nature and technique. δ is small
The rotary oscillations are a special case among various
mechanical oscillator models which allow to investigate the
most important phenomena occurring in all types of oscilla-
tions. In experiment P1.5.3.1 the free damped rotary oscilla-
tions have been investigated. In this experiment it will be
investigated how the oscillator reacts to an external periodic
force.
When applying the periodic torque
Mex = M0 ⋅ sin(ωex ⋅ t ) (I) δ is large
we obtain the following equation of motion for the damped

Supplementary information
All forced harmonic oscillations lead to a differential equa-
tion (II). The solution of this general oscillator model obtained
in this experiment can thus be transferred other type of oscil-
lations, e.g. forced electrical oscillations.
