Question

How can the time period of a simple pendulum be determined?

Answer 1

Answer:

For determining the time period (T). For Example: A lift moving upwards with acceleration 'a', then, T = 2π × (L/geff) = 2π √[L/(g + a)] ... For simple pendulum of length 'L' comparable to the radius of the earth 'R', then the time period T = 2π [1/(g/L + g/R)]

Answer 2

Answer:

Time period means time taken by pendulum for one oscillation .

Time period = The period of a simple pendulum is T=2π√Lg T = 2 π L g
