The uses of a pendulum are that you can:
- swing it for fun
- learn from it
- make stories with it
- get to observe it
And that maybe it!

What does grandfather clock uses to measure time?
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 does the length of a pendulum affect the frequency?
A longer pendulum will have a smaller frequency than a shorter pendulum.
Which factor affects the period of the pendulum?
The period of a pendulum is affected by the angle created by the swing of the pendulum, the length of the attachment to the mass, and the weight of the mass on the end of the pendulum.
What are difference between simple pendulum and compound pendulum?
A simple pendulum has one piece that swings. A complex pendulum has at least two swinging parts, attached end to end. A simple pendulum is extremely predictable, while a complex pendulum is virtually impossible to accurately predict.
What occupations use a pendulum?
Pendulum Terapy occupation uses pendulam
What does grandfather clock uses to measure time?
The Pendulum.
What is the purpose of a pendulum in pendulum clocks?
The purpose of a pendulum in a pendulum clock is that it uses its weight as a way to keep accurate and precise time. When it swings back and forth the weight keeps it going at the same time every time making for more accurate timekeeping.
What are the lyrics to pendulum prelude?
I don't know. But Headhunterz (hardstyle dj) uses it too.
What are some uses of the pendulum?
o Surveyors and construction workers use pendulum (plumb bob) to accurately locate their transits or levels over a specific spot on the Earth's surface o Grandfather clock o A swing in the park o Seismographic instruments use a modification of the basic pendulum
Why a compound pendulum is called equivalent simple pendulum?
Compound pendulum is a physical pendulum whereas a simple pendulum is ideal pendulum. The difference is that in simple pendulum centre of mass and centre of oscillation are at the same distance.
Why was pendulum used in clocks in olden days?
Any mechanical clock or watch (by mechanical I mean non-electric motor driven) uses a pendulum.A pendulum is a great invention; it uses the amount of time that it takes to swing (the period of the swing) to release a single step on a gear (called an escapement gear). No matter how much tension is on the escapement, the pendulum will not swing faster.The time can also be adjusted by shortening or lengthening the distance from the escapement to the pendulum weight.A very cool demonstration is at http://www.howstuffworks.com/gadgets/clocks-watches/clock.htm
What effect does shortening the length of the pendulum have on the period of the pendulum?
A shorter pendulum has a shorter period. A longer pendulum has a longer period.
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.
Did anyone succeed in generating power from gravity just gravity?
Every clock run by weights and a pendulum uses gravity power.
What kind of clock uses a visible pendulum to keep track of time?
the clock that is mostly ran on batteries, but can sometimes be ran on elecricity
What is a bifilar pendulum?
bifilar pendulum
