Is a pendulum a wave?

A pendulum moves in simple harmonic motion. If a graph of the pendulum's motion is drawn with respect with respect to time, the graph will be a sine wave. Pure tones are experienced when the eardrum moves in simple harmonic motion. In these cases "wave" refers not to the thing moving, but to the graph representing the movement.


If you decide that the duration of an instant on a position time graph is a finite period of time where is the object during that period?

If the instant is finite, the object is in the position indicated on the graph


What is the motion of a pendulum in water?

The motion of a pendulum in water will be similar to what it is in air, except it will move more slowly and loose energy much more rapidly (unless something with some "power" is keeping it going). The speed of the pendulum should graph like a sine wave with the peaks and troughs denoting the endpoints of the travel of the pendulum in its arc. The slope of the curve at any point will represent the instantaneous acceleration. If the pendulum is released and no energy is put in from outside, the graph of the speed will diminish very quickly and dramatically.


What is the speed in a single instant of time or a single point on a distance time graph?

The instantaneous speed is the gradient of the graph at that particular point.


What do the numbers below the graph show?

It's difficult to make out enough detail to formulate an answer. Not only can't I see the numbers below the graph, I can't even see the graph.

What information does the slope of a speed time graph provide?

The slope of a speed/time graph at any point is the acceleration at that instant.


The slope of a displacement-time graph is?

The slope at each point of a displacement/time graph is the speed at that instant of time. (Not velocity.)


What is the physical meaning of the slope of the graph of displacement vs time?

The slope of that graph at each point is the speed at that instant of time.
