pendulum systems
Pendulum systems refer to mechanical or physical systems that consist of a mass attached to a fixed point by a string or rod, allowing it to swing back and forth under the force of gravity. These systems exhibit a periodic motion characterized by a regular and predictable pattern, making them useful in various scientific and engineering applications.
