--> Today in physics we experimented and observed the waves formed by a pendulum.

| Line of equilibrium |
- Our pendulum consisted of a container with a hole at the mouth and a string attached to the base to form a swinging motion when moved.
- With sand placed in the pendulum and paper underneath the pendulum, we first let it swing to see the line if equilibrium that the sand made on the paper.
- Second, we tested to see the waves of the pendulum by steadily moving the paper underneath the swinging pendulum.

| Waves of pendulum |
- From this we can approximately see that how the pendulum moves in a wave like motion.
Ted Talk - How to buy happiness.
- http://www.ted.com/talks/michael_norton_how_to_buy_happiness.html
- Micheal Norton talks all about how people can in fact buy happiness. Although, man people think of this as buying items and different things for themselves to improve their lives, but this is not the case. The phrase of money CAN buy happiness is true if put in the contents of --> if spent properly. Ultimately, money (a majority of the time) makes people selfish there for making them socially incompetent and unpleasant to be with. If money was spent of different things, or in other words, different people, it is proven to make one happier no matter how much you spend. This theory has been tested world wide and has proven itself very true. From the words of Mr. norton, "The specific way that you spend on other people isn't nearly as important as the fact that you spend on other people.” Meaning no matter what you give someone else, it will make you happier than anything you buy for yourself. So the question is, what can you do to benefit others with your money before acting for yourself?
