It shouldn't relate at all.

The period of a pendulum depends only on its length,

not on how far it swings side-to-side.

How does the period of a pendulum relate to how hard the pendulum is pushed?

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.

Who introduce complex numbers?

It's hard to say. The concept is very old. I would start with the related link article on Wikipedia.


How is basketball related to geometry and physics?

That's a hard question. The only thing I can think of is when Quinn says that Basketball is Basic Geometry & Physics on Zoey 101. I'm not sure how they're related. Good question.

Can the heart of a race horse burst if pushed to hard?

Yes, the heart of a horse CAN burst if it is pushed too hard. If you have seen the movie Secretariat, the horse Secretariat's jockey, Ronnie, pushes too hard in a race and its heart bursts. This is a true story of a race horse.
