Pendulum movement independent of mass

Simulation:m-06-pen_mass.txt

 

 

The simulations demonstrates the fact that the period for a full swing of a pendulum is independent of the mass of the pendeling object, provided the suspensions have the same length and negligible mass. Again the applied Newtonian forces and the inertial or acceleration-reaction forces can be shown or hidden to emphasize the proportionality of inertial and gravitational mass.
