What factors affect the swing of a pendulum?
Air resistance, Gravity, Friction, The attachment of the pendulum to the support bar, Length of String, Initial Energy (if you just let it go it will go slower than if you swing it) and the Latitude. Amplitude only affects large swings (in small swing the amplitude is doesn't affect the swing time). Mass of the pendulum does not affect the swing time. A formula for predicting the swing of a pendulum: T=2(pi)SQRT(L/g) T = time pi = 3.14... SQRT = square root L = Length g = gravity
How does the amplitude of the pendulum affect the pendulum?
It messes up the math. For large amplitude swings, the simple relation that the period of a pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of the length of the pendulum (only, assuming constant gravity) no longer holds. Specifically, the period increases with increasing amplitude.
Does the amplitude affect the period of the pendulum?
The period of a pendulum is (sort of) independent of the amplitude. This is technically true for very small, "infinitesimal" swings. In this range, amplitude does not affect period. For larger swings, however, a circular error is introduced, but it is possible to compensate with various designs. See the Related Link below for further information.
The amplitude of the pendulum?
The amplitude of a pendulum is the distance between its equilibrium point and the farthest point that it reaches during each oscillation.
The amplitude of a pendulum is doubled what does this mean?
The pendulum swings twice as far.

What will be the effect of time period of a simple pendulum if its mass is doubled and its amplitude is halved?
The PERIOD of a Simple Pendulum is affected by its LENGTH, and NOT by its Mass or the amplitude of its swing. So, in your case, the Period of the Pendulum's swing would remain UNCHANGED!
How does amplitude of a pendulum affect frequency?
it doesnt affect the amplitude as the mass and length remain constant
Does the height of release affect the swing of a pendulum?
no.

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)
What Is The Independent And Dependent Variables in Galileo Pendulum experiment?
Galileo's pendulum experiment showed that the period of the swing is independent of the amplitude (size) of the swing. So the independent variable is the size of the swing, and the dependent variable is the period. The experiment showed there was no dependence, for small swings anyway. The experiment led to the use of the pendulum in clocks.
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.
What variables affect the swing of a pendulum?
-- friction in the pivot -- air moving past the pendulum -- the effective length of the pendulum -- the local acceleration of gravity
What is the relationship between a swinging pendulum and a sine curve?
Assuming an idealised pendulum with a small amplitude, both are examples of simple harmonic motion. That is, the second derivative of the curve is directly proportional to its displacement but in the opposite direction. If the amplitude (swing) of the pendulum is large or if the majority of its mass is not oi the "blob" the relationship is only approximate.
Does the amplitude affect the period of the pendulum?
The period of a pendulum is (sort of) independent of the amplitude. This is technically true for very small, "infinitesimal" swings. In this range, amplitude does not affect period. For larger swings, however, a circular error is introduced, but it is possible to compensate with various designs. See the Related Link below for further information.
Which swing more heavier pendulum or lighter pendulum?
A heavier pendulum will swing longer due to its greater inertia.
