I recently learned that in a room of grandfather clocks, they will (mostly) all eventually synchronize. Can you guess why? -- Bobby G. Vibrations from each pendulum can influence the swings of the others. That assumes that all clocks are attached to a medium that can transmit the vibrations. It might take a very, very long time in a room with concrete walls. ;-) |

I recently learned that in a room of grandfather clocks, they will (mostly) all eventually synchronize. Can you guess why? I'd guess they have to be in physical contact, or at least on the same wall. Then the vibration will pass between them, and they'll swing in time, like carrier bags annoyingly swing in time with your running. I'm surprised it's enough effect though, given the mass of a wall is far greater than a pendulum. Maybe it only works with big clocks and a long time period. -- If you think people aren't creative, watch them try to re-fold a roadmap. |

Robert Green laid this down on his screen :

The 'timekeeper' gets tired of them not being synchronized and adjusts them. |

I guess this is similar to all the generators on the national grid staying in phase. Although they're connected more strongly. -- In 1999 the creators of KY Jelly created a new product.

What you will notice in the shorter video is that once the support piece is placed back on the solid surface, the devices begin to loose sync. That could easily be attributed to slight differences in the speed setting, inaccuracies of the movement, friction, etc. However, one might assume - based on the theory of transmitted vibrations - that they would all eventually sync up again, although it might take a very long time. That said, there might also be a point where the "loose" set up is able to synchronize the devices even with major differences in the factors mentioned above while the "solid" set up might *never* be able overcome those differences. It's one of those things that would be really hard to prove since you would have to leave the devices running for all of eternity before you could firmly say that it will never happen. In theory, you might be able to track minute changes and then calculate how long it *should* take for them all to sync up, but you might never be able to physically prove it. |

I had to use a synchroscope to nearly match to the grid phase before attaching to the grid. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchr...nating_current) Also, the behavior seen with the pendulum metrognomes would only work with them aligned a certain way (with a feedback mechanism) and all having the same period or simple ratios of periods. I doubt that a room full of 'different' grandfather clocks with different pendulum alignments and periods would exhibit this behavior. |
