Potential -> Kinetic -> Potential and so on and so forth
The longer the length of the pendulum, the longer the time taken for the pendulum to complete 1 oscillation.
A longer pendulum will have a smaller frequency than a shorter 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.
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.
Increase the length of the pendulum
In a pendulum, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as it swings back and forth. Friction and air resistance gradually dissipate the kinetic energy, causing the pendulum to eventually stop swinging.
At the start of a swing the pendulum has lots of potential energy but no kinetic energy. As it moves downwards the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. In the upswing the kinetic energy is converted back into potential energy. Some of the energy is converted into heat by friction which is why the pendulum slows down.
Energy conversions is the process of energy changing form within a single object. For example, when you release a pendulum, the potential energy it had while being drawn upwards is changed into kinetic energy or the energy of movement. The total amount of energy is kept the same, but is simply changing the amount of energy each type had.
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.
The longer the length of the pendulum, the longer the time taken for the pendulum to complete 1 oscillation.
The weight on a pendulum is called a bob or pendulum bob. It is a mass that hangs from the end of the pendulum arm and helps determine the period of oscillation.
Frictionlist pendulum is an example of the pendulum of a clock, a reversible process, free.
A longer pendulum will have a smaller frequency than a shorter pendulum.
Doubling the mass of a pendulum will not affect the time period of its oscillation. The time period of a pendulum depends on the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity, but not on the mass of the pendulum bob.
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.
The length of a pendulum can be found by measuring the distance from the point of suspension to the center of mass of the pendulum bob. This distance is known as the length of the 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.
