Abstract:
The measurement of the long wavelengths of the Earth's gravitational resonances with a high-sensitivity accelerometer as these resonances pass through materials of different densities enables the measurement of the relative concentration levels of organic compounds in biological specimens. This method is demonstrated in the microscale measurement of the physiologically important variables in the Chlorophyta phyla. Future analysis includes the measurement of physiological variables in humans.

Measuring Acceleration Due to Gravity
A simple pendulum can be described as a point mass and a string. Meanwhile, a physical pendulum is any object whose oscillations are similar to a simple pendulum, but cannot be modeled as a point mass on a string because its mass is distributed over a larger area. The behavior of a physical pendulum can be modeled using the principles of...
