A pendulum has length L and period T. What is the length of a pendulum with a period of T/2?
Added by Mar-A W.
Step 1
Step 1: First, we need to recall the formula for the period of a pendulum, which is given by: T = 2π√(L/g) where T is the period, L is the length of the pendulum, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Show more…

Period of a Pendulum The period $T$ (in seconds) of a simple pendulum as a function of its length $l$ (in feet) is given by $$ T(l)=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{32.2}} $$ (a) Express the length $l$ as a function of the period $T$. (b) How long is a pendulum whose period is 3 seconds?
