Re: Pendulum


At the recent AAPT meeting in Phoenix, when I went up to the top floor
of the hotel to look at the annular restaurant, it occurred to me
that one ought to have a portable Foucault Pendulum to set on the
table as you eat your meal.

And you could figure the price of your meal in units of $$/degree of
precession!
