Simple Pendulum
A simple pendulum is one which can be considered to be a point mass suspended from a string or rod of negligible mass.
A pendulum clock is a clock that uses a pendulum, a swinging weight, as its timekeeping element. The advantage of a pendulumfor timekeeping is that it is a harmonic oscillator; it swings back and forth in a precise time interval dependent on its length, and resists swinging at other rates.
