This video gives you an overview of how to do the oscillating spaghetti experiment. In the experiment you will test three variables to see how they affect the frequency of a mass oscillating at the end of a piece of dry spaghetti. The three variables include: different types of spaghetti, different masses and different lengths of spaghetti. You have never had so much fun playing with spaghetti.
A detailed description of this experiment along with accompanying lab worksheets is available at our TPT store:
