Question
A simple pendulum oscillates back and forth with a period of 2 s. What is the length of the string of the pendulum?(A) 0.25 m(B) 0.5 m(C) 1 m(D) 2 m
Step 1
Step 1: We know that the formula for the period of a simple pendulum is given by: \[T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\] where \(T\) is the period, \(l\) is the length of the pendulum, and \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity. Show more…
