Pendulum Painting Physics
by Rose Harvey
This is a project to be used possibly at the end of a unit on Newton's Laws with discussions of how his laws apply to the painting and the motion of the pendulum. It can also lead to discussions of the difference between kinetic and potential energy as well as the role gravity plays in the final product.
