No, because there's a resoring force from the coil.

Does friction affect the period of a metronome?
Friction affects most every thing. In a mechanical metronome you would not need a power source if there were no friction.
How does height affect the period of a pendulum?
Height does not affect the period of a pendulum.
How do the parameters of a simple pendulum affect the period of a pendulum?
The period increases as the square root of the length.
Does amplitude effect the period of a pendulum?
no it doesnt affect the period of pendulum. the formulea that we know for simple pendulum is T = 2pie root (L/g)
How does length and initial angle affect the period in a simple pendulum?
The longer the pendulum is, the greater the period of each swing. If you increase the length four times, you will double the period. It is hard to notice, but the period of a pendulum does depend on the angle of oscillation. For small angles, the period is constant and depends only on the length of the pendulum. As the angle of oscillation (amplitude) is increased, additional factors of a Taylor approximation become important. (T=2*pi*sqrt(L/g)[1+theta^2/16+...] and the period increases. (see hyper physics: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/pendl.html) Interestingly, if the pendulum is supported by a very light wire then the mass of the object at the end of the pendulum does not affect the period. Obviously, the greater the mass, the less any air friction or friction at the pivot will slow the pendulum. Also interestingly, the pendulum period is dependant on the force of gravity on the object (g). One must not assume that g is constant for all places on Earth.
Does the bob affect the pendulum's time period?
no ,because they are not the same
Does the length of pendulum affect the period of vibration?
Yes. Given a constant for gravity, the period of the pendulum is a function of it's length to the center of mass. In a higher gravity, the period would be shorter for the same length of pendulum.
Does length of the pendulum affect its period?
Technically and mathematically, the length is the onlything that affects its period.
Does the length of the pendulum affect the number of cycles?
no. it affects the period of the cycles.
What happens to time period of a simple pendulum if a heavy body is attached to it instead of bob?
The period of a simple pendulum is independent of the mass of the bob. Keep in mind that the size of the bob does affect the length of the pendulum.
How does mass affect pendulum frequency?
It doesn't. Only the length of the pendulum and the strength of the gravitational field alter the period/frequency.
What are the factors that affect the period of a pendulum?
In an ideal pendulum, the only factors that affect the period of a pendulum are its length and the acceleration due to gravity. The latter, although often taken to be constant, can vary by as much as 5% between sites. In a real pendulum, the amplitude will also have an effect; but if the amplitude is relatively small, this can safely be ignored.
