A question on Pendulum experiment
#13

The analysis algorithm looks out for the right most maximum and divides the time shift by the order of the maximum. This improves the resolution a bit to 10ms/order.

I performed a few tests and could definitely see a 10ms “grid” in 1/frequency, i.e. the period. The associated order of the dots in-between keeps me wondering a bit (in the final example one less than expected)…

Jens,
since I have few smartphones collecting dust.....  My previous screenshots were from Samsung Galaxy S6 Active phone.  I've tried that very experiment with Samsung Galaxy S8:
   
and with iPhone 6:
   

and the graph is exactly as you explained it should be!  One can very clearly see the frequencies "grid" - although I  see them spaced every ~0.005Hz 

I suppose the 'extra' data points I'm seeing on my Samsung Galaxy S6 Active phone are due to some inaccuracies of that device sensor?
