Plastic optical fiber as a tool for experimenting with simple pendulum
In this paper an experiment with plastic optical fiber to control the motion of a simple pendulum was described. The monitoring system of pendulum position is based on bend loss in plastic optical fiber which depends of bend radius. As a recording device a PC sound card was used. With this measureme...
