Foucault Pendulum

A physics investigation using pendulum measurements from 21 locations to study how Earth's rotation appears through precession.

Physics

The investigation

I contacted roughly 50 universities and institutions operating Foucault pendulums, collected usable measurements from 21 locations at different latitudes, and compared the observed precession with what Earth’s rotation predicts.
