-the heavier the weight, the faster the oscillation
-the shorter the string, the faster the oscillation
-the lighter the weight, the slower the oscillation]]> 2020-09-01 01:14:21 UTC https://padlet.com/aegunderson/ytpo0qd76o9c/wish/710496332 shorter the string, the faster the oscillations https://padlet.com/aegunderson/ytpo0qd76o9c/wish/710496387 2020-09-01 01:14:22 UTC https://padlet.com/aegunderson/ytpo0qd76o9c/wish/710496387 Group 7 https://padlet.com/aegunderson/ytpo0qd76o9c/wish/710496702 2020-09-01 01:14:35 UTC https://padlet.com/aegunderson/ytpo0qd76o9c/wish/710496702 adding a second washer made the oscillation slower https://padlet.com/aegunderson/ytpo0qd76o9c/wish/710496951 2020-09-01 01:14:44 UTC https://padlet.com/aegunderson/ytpo0qd76o9c/wish/710496951 Breakout Room 1 https://padlet.com/aegunderson/ytpo0qd76o9c/wish/710497107 Tying to a door knob, hit the door and mess up sequence. 
Short string 
60 oscillations in 30 seconds. 
Tied to ruler and held it
60 oscillations for 58 seconds.

Three different variations, wrapped around hand.  Once oscillations hit 60, measured material it was attached to. Twine was 4 1/2 inches, yarn 3 1/4 inches, fishing line 6 inches.
