Question

How do the following factors affect the time period of a simple pendulum? (a) Length of the string of pendulum. (b) Mass of Bob.

Answer 1

Answer:

The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.

Answer 2

Answer:

The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.)

The following are the factors which affect the time period of a pendulum :  

Length  - The time period is directly proportional to the square  root of its length i.e., T ∝  $\sqrt{x}$I

​Acceleration due to gravity (g) - Time period is inversely proportional  to the square root of the acceleration due to gravity at the place i.e.,

T ∝ $\frac{I}{\sqrt{g} }$

The time period of a simple pendulum is independent of the mass of its  bob and also of the nature of the material of the bob
