Snake Pendulum: How a Row of Pendulums Creates a Mechanical Ballet
How does a row of pendulums create a captivating mechanical ballet?
Zigong Zhongqing has meticulously crafted the “Snake Pendulum” interactive exhibit, showcasing the perfect fusion of mechanics and aesthetics.
This installation consists of multiple single pendulums.
Each pendulum has a precisely calculated length.
When activated by visitors, the pendulums begin to swing in sequence.
They create graceful snake-like trajectories in the air.
This vividly demonstrates the physical relationship between a pendulum’s period and length.
Each suspension length is precisely designed.
By adjusting the length ratio, the system achieves an arithmetic progression of swing periods.

This is the key principle behind the snake-like swinging motion.
With the rapid development of intelligent manufacturing and industrial design.
The principles of mechanical dynamics are being widely applied across various fields.
This exhibit uses intuitive visual language.
It helps visitors understand physical concepts such as vibration frequency and mechanical wave propagation.
It also allows them to appreciate the artistic beauty of precision mechanics.
No complex operation is required—simply stand and observe.
Experience the mechanical rhythms that change over time.
This exhibit is suitable for science museums, school science galleries, and corporate exhibition halls.
Whether for science center interactive exhibits or visitor center exhibits, such pieces make abstract physics直观 and engaging.
