Question

• How would the period of a pendulum that is 1m long change if you go to the moon? • If you double the mass of a pendulum bob, but everything else is kept the same, how does the period change? • Why should you keep the amplitude of a pendulum small?

Step 1

Given: Length of pendulum, L = 1m Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s^2 The time period of oscillation of a simple pendulum is given by: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} \] Substitute the values: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{1}{9.81}} \] \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{0.102} Show more…
