Torsional Oscillator

Data Analysis

  1. Show a table of your data and a plot of torque vs radians of rotation, along with a linear fit of your data.
  2. Show your fit equation and determination of \kappa, with its uncertainty.
  3. Determine the rotational inertia of the copper disk, and compare with the theoretical value of a copper disk. Comment on whether your measurement agrees with theory.
