Question Answered step-by-step A conical pendulum can be constructed by attaching one end of a… A conical pendulum can be constructed by attaching one end of a string to some type of overhead support such as a door frame, ceiling, or other support.  Then the other end of the string is attached to a reasonably dense object that will not be extensively impacted by air resistance.  Set the object into circular motion by giving it a push tangent to the circle to establish horizontal circular motion.  This may take a few practice runs to perfect.   mass is 1kg, velocity is 2 m/s, length is 3 m, angle is 20* The horizontal force (F) measured with the spring scale is equal in magnitude to the horizontal component of the tension (Tx) in the string.  When the conical pendulum is set into circular motion with the same angle (20*), though F is no longer present, the value of Tx will be the same. Record the value of Tx.   Science Physics PHYS 1 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
