Some Terms Related to Simple Pendulum

1. Length of the pendulum: The length of the string (thread) from the point of of suspension to the centre of bob is called the length of the the pendulum.
2. Mean position of the bob: The position of the bob when it is at rest is called its mean position.
3. Extreme position of the bob: The positions where the the bob is at the the maximum distance from the mean position are called the extreme position.
4. Oscillation of the pendulum: One complete to-and-fro motion of the bob about its mean position is called an oscillation of the pendulum.
5. Amplitude of the pendulum: As the pendulum oscillates to-and-fro, the maximum displacement of the bob from its mean position on either side is called the the amplitude of the pendulum.
6. Time period of the pendulum: The time taken by the bob of a pendulum to complete one oscillation is called the time period of the pendulum.
7. Frequency of the pendulum: The number of oscillations made by a pendulum in 1 second is called its frequency. The SI unit of frequency is hertz (Hz).
