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 factors affect the period of a pendulum?
In a simple pendulum, with its entire mass concentrated at the end of a string, the period depends on the distance of the mass from the pivot point. A physical pendulum's period is affected by the distance of the centre-of-gravity of the pendulum arm to the pivot point, its mass and its moment of inertia about the pivot point. In real life the pendulum period can also be affected by air resistance, temperature changes etc.
Does the length of pendulum affect the period of vibration?
Yes. Given a constant for gravity, the period of the pendulum is a function of it's length to the center of mass. In a higher gravity, the period would be shorter for the same length of pendulum.
Does the period of simple pendulum depend on the mass of the bob?
Not in the theoretical world, in the practical world: just a very little. The period is determined primarily by the length of the pendulum. If the rod is not a very small fraction of the mass of the bob then the mass center of the rod will have to be taken into account when calculating the "length" of the pendulum.
How does the bob affects the period of a pendulum?
The period of a pendulum is totally un-affected by the mass of the bob.The time period of pendulum is given by the eqn.T=2*PIE*(l/g)1/2 ;l is the length of pendulum;g is the acceleration due to gravity.'l' is the length from the centre of suspension to the centre of gravity the bob.ie.the length of the pendulum depends on the centre of gravity of the bob,and hence the distribution of mass of the bob.
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 happens to the period of a pendulum if you increase its mass?
The mass has no significant effect on the period.
What will be the effect of time period of a simple pendulum if its mass is doubled and its amplitude is halved?
The PERIOD of a Simple Pendulum is affected by its LENGTH, and NOT by its Mass or the amplitude of its swing. So, in your case, the Period of the Pendulum's swing would remain UNCHANGED!

What happen to the time period of pendulum if the mass of bob is changed?
If you make the simplifying assumption that everything except the bob is massless, then the mass of the bob has no effect on the period.
What are the factors on which the time period of simple pendulum depends?
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.
How does the period of a pendulum difference theoretically with angular displacement and mass of ball for simple pendulum?
According to the mathematics and physics of the simple pendulum hung on a massless string, neither the mass of the bob nor the angular displacement at the limits of its swing has any influence on the pendulum's period.
Does the length of pendulum affect the period of vibration?
Yes. Given a constant for gravity, the period of the pendulum is a function of it's length to the center of mass. In a higher gravity, the period would be shorter for the same length of pendulum.

Mass and pendulum oscillation?
Mass oscillation time period = 2 pi sq rt. (m/k) Pendulum oscillation time period = 2 pi sq rt. (l/g)
What happens to time period of a simple pendulum if a heavy body is attached to it instead of bob?
The period of a simple pendulum is independent of the mass of the bob. Keep in mind that the size of the bob does affect the length of the pendulum.
How does mass affect pendulum frequency?
It doesn't. Only the length of the pendulum and the strength of the gravitational field alter the period/frequency.
