Question

Time taken by the pendulum to complete 20 oscillations is 48 second. What is the time period of the pendulum?

Answer 1

Answer:

The time period of the pendulum is 2.4 seconds.

Explanation:

Time period of a simple pendulum is defined as time taken by a simple pendulum to complete one oscillation.

Given that,

          Time taken to complete 20 oscillations, t= 48s

          Therefore, time taken to complete one oscillation ,

                     T = $\frac{48}{20}$= 2.4 s

           Time period = 2.4seconds.
