Zone and Chapter: University of Central Florida
Project
Project Name: Cavendish Experiment
Project Leaders: Brian Ferrari
Chapter Advisors: Costas Efthimiou
Project Description: To better prepare for graduate school we, the Society of Physics Students at the University of Central Florida, want to conduct the Cavendish Experiment. By measuring the displacement of a torsion bar caused by the gravitational force between two masses on each end we can calculate the gravitational constant.
