Question

The simple pendulum takes 42 seconds to complete 60 oscillations the time period of the simple pendulum is

Answer 1

Time period of a pendulum = Time taken to complete one oscillation.

Therefore,

in 42 seconds : number of oscillations =60

For one oscillation,time taken = 42/60=0.7 seconds.

Hence, time period is 0.7 seconds.

Hope you found it helpful!!

Answer 2

Answer:

Time Period = 1.42

Explanation:

Time period =

$\frac{no. \: of \: oscillations}{total \: time \: taken}$

So,

=60/42

=1.42857

Hence time period is 1.42
