The circular Atwood machine
Resumen:
The Atwood Machine, a classic apparatus in physics education, has historically been pivotal in demonstrating Newtonian mechanics, specifically Newton's Second Law. This study introduces an innovative adaptation, the circular Atwood machine, aimed at exploring circular motion and angular dynamics and integrating emerging technologies, specifically smartphone sensors. Through a rotating disc subjected to controlled external torque, the experiment delves into the relationship between the torque applied and the resulting angular momentum. The study not only presents the theoretical framework but also outlines a practical setup using readily available materials, emphasizing the potential for contemporary technology to enhance the comprehension and teaching of fundamental physical concepts.
