Lab Report......HELP!!

1. The Simple Pendulum Description: use the period of the simple pendulum to calculate the gravitational acceleration g and compare your results to the known value Materials:  - Stop watch - String - Mass

2. Measurements of Specific Heat Description: determine the specific heat for different materials and compare with the known values. Materials:  - Kitchen scale - Styrofoam cups - Thermometer (something like this) - Specific heat set (click here to see an example) Hint:  - a double Styrofoam cup fitted with plastic lid is a very effective calorimeter
