Question

a simple pendulum takes 24 seconds to complete 20 oscillations what is the time period of the pendulum

Answer 1

Time period = Time ÷ Number of oscillation

T = 24÷20 = 1.2s

Answer 2

Given - Time and number of oscillations

Find - Time period

Solution - Time period = total time taken/number of oscillations

Keep the values in formula to find the time period.

Time period = $\frac{24}{20}$

Performing division

Time period = 1.2 seconds

Hence, the time period is 1.2 seconds.
