When he became interested all'isocronismo?
My first interest in the pendulum was a time I was in the Cathedral of Pisa for a religious function. As my mind distracted followed the long sermon, I saw a priest holding a candlestick. The chandelier hung from the ceiling by a long rope and the priest pulled him aside. When he finished the sermon, the priest left that the chandelier began to sway. I looked at him and began to consider the time it takes to make a swing full circle. To measure time, swing sfruttai the beat of my wrist, and while the oscillations gradually decreased in size, I made an amazing discovery: he had the same swing every time, even though each had a width less than the previous year. Not sure what the eyes and the pulse of the wrist were proving to me, I ran home to repeat what I had seen in the Cathedral. Semplificai the experiment by replacing the chandelier a pendulum, a simple small weights tied to a string. What he discovered in 1602? In 1602 I made the greatest discovery about the pendulum. I discovered that the time of oscillation depends on the extent of the arc is not completed (isochrone). I found out by producing two pendulums of equal weight with different initial elongation, and counting the number of complete oscillations in the same period of time. To my amazement I saw that the pendulum with an initial elongation of 5 degrees had the same period of oscillation with the initial elongation of 45 degrees.
She is really a genius! I wonder how many people will be taught these things?
