Question

Show that for a small amplitude, the motion of a simple pendulum is linear S.H.M. Hence find its period

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence, the motion of the bob of a simple pendulum is simple harmonic. Comparing equations (1) and (2), Equation (3) represents the time period of the simple pendulum. Thus the period of a simple pendulum depends on the length of the pendulum and acceleration due to gravity.
