Question

If it takes 0.1 sec for a pendulum bob to move from mean position to one end. The time period of the pendulum is _________.

Answer 1

Answer:

The time period of a pendulum is the time taken for the bob from the mean position to one end, then to the other end and back to the mean position.

Explanation:

So the time period of the pendulum is:

0.1 (From the mean position to one end) +0.1 (From one end to the mean position) +0.1 (From mean position to the other end) +0.1 (Back to the mean position) = The time period of the pendulum

0.1 +0.1 +0.1 +0.1 =0.4

Therefore the time period of the pendulum is 0.4 seconds.
