T=2pi(l/g)1/2
The period of a pendulum (in seconds) is 2(pi)√(L/g), where L is the length and g is the acceleration due to gravity. As acceleration due to gravity increases, the period decreases, so the smaller the acceleration due to gravity, the longer the period of the pendulum.
The period of a pendulum is give approximately by the formula t = 2*pi*sqrt(l/g) where l is the length of the pendulum and g is the acceleration (not accerlation) due to gravity. Thus g is part of the formula for the period.
T=2π√(L/g)where L is the length of the pendulum and g is the local acceleration of gravity.
The period of a simple pendulum swinging at a small angle is approximately 2*pi*Sqrt(L/g), where L is the length of the pendulum, and g is acceleration due to gravity. Since gravity on the moon is approximately 1/6 of Earth's gravity, the period of a pendulum on the moon with the same length will be approximately 2.45 times of the same pendulum on the Earth (that's square root of 6).
No Time period, T = 2π √(l/g) π - pi l - lenght of the pendulum g - acceleration due to gravity at the place
It doesn't. Period depends on the length of the pendulum and the acceleration of gravity. Adding weight doesn't change the period at all.
The period of a pendulum (in seconds) is 2(pi)√(L/g), where L is the length and g is the acceleration due to gravity. As acceleration due to gravity increases, the period decreases, so the smaller the acceleration due to gravity, the longer the period of the pendulum.
Normally the acceleration of gravity is not a factor in the period of a simple pendulum because it does not change on Earth, but if it were to be put on another celestial body the period would change. As gravity increases the period is shorter and as the gravity is less the period is longer.
The length of the pendulum, and the acceleration due to gravity. Despite what many people believe, the mass has nothing to do with the period of a pendulum.
1. Length of the pendulum 2. acceleration due to gravity at that place
The equation is: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/HBASE/imgmec/pend.gif T is the period in seconds, L is pendulum length in cm, g is acceleration of gravity in m/s2. We know on earth the period is 1s when the acceleration of gravity is 9.8m/s2, so the pendulum length is 24.824cm. The acceleration of gravity on the moon is 1.6m/s2. Substitute 24.824cm for L and 1.6 for g and you yield 2.475 seconds. The period is 2.475 seconds.
No,it does not have the least effect but as well contributes to its retardation
The period (time) of one swing of a pendulum is(2 pi) times the square root of (pendulum length / acceleration of gravity). There are three variables in this formula ... the length of the pendulum, the period of itsswing, and the acceleration of gravity. If you know any two of them, you can calculate thethird one. You want to use this method to measure gravity ? Fine ! Massage the formulaaround to this form Acceleration of gravity = (length of the pendulum) times (2 pi/period)2 then start measuring and swinging.The more accurately you can measure the length of your pendulum, from the pivotto the center of mass of everything that swings, and the period of its swing, and themore completely you can isolate everything from outside influences, like air currents,the more accurately you can calculate the acceleration of gravity, in the exact place whereyou run the experiment.
The time period of a simple pendulum is calculated using the following conditions: Length of the pendulum: The longer the length of the pendulum, the longer it takes for one complete back-and-forth swing. Acceleration due to gravity: The time period is inversely proportional to the square root of the acceleration due to gravity. Higher gravity results in a shorter time period. Angle of displacement: The time period is slightly affected by the initial angle of displacement, but this effect becomes negligible for small angles.
The period of a pendulum is give approximately by the formula t = 2*pi*sqrt(l/g) where l is the length of the pendulum and g is the acceleration (not accerlation) due to gravity. Thus g is part of the formula for the period.
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.
You can use a simple pendulum, measure how long one period takes, then use the formula for a pendulum, and solve for gravitational acceleration.
