The Effect of Temperature on a Torsional Pendulum.

Abstract

Testing was performed on a torsional pendulum to determine the amount of error introduced by temperature variation in determining moments of inertia. The torsional pendulum used in this test showed 0.0365 percent error per degree F variation in temperature. (Author)
