Abstract

This chapter describes a further experiment using the acceleration sensor of a smartphone. For a previous column on this topic, including the description of the operation and use of the acceleration sensor, see [1]. In this contribution we focus on analyzing simple pendulum phenomena. A smartphone is used as a pendulum bob, and SPARKvue [2] software is used in conjunction with an iPhone or an iPod touch, or the Accelogger [3] app for an Android device. As described in [1], the values measured by the smartphone are subsequently exported to a spreadsheet application (e.g., MS Excel) for analysis.
