Gdańsk University of Technology crowned with a gilded image of the Allegory of Science. The main building encloses inner courtyards covered by glass domes designed by W. Czabański and Z. Wilk and installed in 2004. In 2012 the South Courtyard was officially renamed in honour of Johannes Hevelius. The Foucault pendulum is designed to show the rotation of the Earth on its axis. It is named after the French physicist who first performed a similar experiment at the Paris Pantheon in 1851. The machine that made its appearance in 2005 in the South Courtyard of Gdansk University of Technology is a 64 kg metal
Kapitza's pendulum become stable in Kapitza's pendulum. The rotating solutions of the Kapitza's pendulum occur when the pendulum rotates around the pivot point at the same frequency that the pivot point is driven. There are two rotating solutions, one for a rotation in each direction. We shift to the rotating reference frame using formula_59 and the equation for formula_39 becomes: Again considering the limit in which formula_5 is much higher than the proper frequency formula_38, we find that the rapid-formula_5 slow-formula_65 limit leads to the equation: The effective potential is just that of a simple pendulum equation. There is a stable equilibrium
