Problem Statement
Fix one end of a horizontal elastic rod to a rigid
stand. Support the other end of the rod with a
taut string to avoid vertical deflection and
suspend a bob from it on another string. In the
resulting pendulum the radial oscillations
(parallel to the rod) can spontaneously convert
into azimuthal oscillations (perpendicular to the
rod) and vice versa. Investigate the
phenomenon.

Theory- Conservation of energy
The radial oscillations of the bob disturb the equilibrium of the elastic rod causing to move in the direction of the bob’s motion.
Since the rod is fixed on one end, it traces a circular path (azimuthal oscillations)
The restoring force of the rod acts against the motion of the bob.
This sets up a chain of energy transfer where the motion of the bob is transferred into the azimuthal perturbations of the rod
