If you know the time, t, taken for N (complete) oscillations then the period, P, is P = t/N

Will a pendulum time period increase or decrease when taken to the top of the mountain?
The time period of a pendulum will increase when taken to the top of a mountain. This is because the acceleration due to gravity decreases at higher altitudes, resulting in a longer time for the pendulum to complete each oscillation.
Is a pendulum's time period increases or decreases when it taken from earth to moon?
Increases.
Does the period of simple pendulum depend on the mass of the bob?
Not in the theoretical world, in the practical world: just a very little. The period is determined primarily by the length of the pendulum. If the rod is not a very small fraction of the mass of the bob then the mass center of the rod will have to be taken into account when calculating the "length" of the pendulum.
How does the length of the pendulum effect the pendulum?
The longer the length of the pendulum, the longer the time taken for the pendulum to complete 1 oscillation.
How are the period and the frequency of a wave reletated?
The period of a wave is defined as the time taken by a wave to complete one oscillation. While, the frequency of a wave is defined as the number of oscillations completed by a wave in one second.
What happen to the energy of compound pendulum when it is oscillating?
when oscillations taken energy of pendulum dissipates
What happens to the energy of a compound pendulum when it is oscillating?
when oscillations taken energy of pendulum dissipates
Which instrument can be used to measure the time taken for the pendulum to make 20 oscillations?
A stopwatch could be used.
Time period of simple pendulum is three seconds the same pendulum taken at the moon - what will be its new time period?
This pendulum, which is 2.24m in length, would have a period of 7.36 seconds on the moon.
Does the distance a pendulum travels decrease with each arc?
if by arc you mean the "Period" of the pendulum then yes, it does: with each revolution the period of the pendulum (the time taken to swing back and forth once) does decrease.
How would you determine the value of gravity using a pendulum?
In practice (as opposed to theory) not only the force of gravity from the earth but all matter in the pendulum's vicinity. The drag caused by air on the pendulum shaft and weight, the friction in the suspension, the Coriolis effect...

The time period of a pendulum will increase when taken to the top of a mountain. This is because the acceleration due to gravity decreases at higher altitudes, resulting in a longer time for the pendulum to complete each oscillation.
Is a pendulum's time period increases or decreases when it taken from earth to moon?
Increases.
Why do people add pennies to big ben?
by adding pennies , it changes the time taken for the oscillations of a pendulum ( for it to swing back and forth ) . This can be adjusted by adding more pennies to the top, which makes the length of the pendulum shorter and thus swinging faster. However , if you want the pendulum to go at a slower rate , then you would add pennies to the bottom.
What is the formula of time period for projection of particle?
time taken by pendulum/to complete 1 oscillation
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.
Does the period of simple pendulum depend on the mass of the bob?
