A sand pendulum that creates a beautiful pattern only by its movement.
But why does the ellipse change shape?
The pattern gets smaller because energy is not conserved (and in fact decreases) in the system. The mass in the pendulum gets smaller and the center of mass lowers as a function of time. Easy as that, an amazing pattern arises through the laws of physics.
seriously, why did i use all those hashtags?? who was i trying to impress? what teen audience? just impress yourself guys. don't use hashtags if you think they're stupid. but also don't make fun of people who use hashtags. #spreadlovenothate
