As the force of gravity increases the period would decrease.

So shortest period on the sun (if you can keep it intact), then sea level, then mountain top and then moon.

In simple pendulum if string is flexible then what is effect on time period?

multiply the length of the pendulum by 4, the period doubles. the period is proportional to the square of the pendulum length.


Does amplitude effect the period of a pendulum?

no it doesnt affect the period of pendulum. the formulea that we know for simple pendulum is T = 2pie root (L/g)


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 is effect on time period of simple pendulum at centre of earth?

At the center of the Earth there would be no effective gravity; a pendulum wouldn't work as a pendulum.


How would the period of the simple pendulum be change if the pendulum is moved from the sea level to the top of the high mountain?

It's faster at sea level and slower at the top of a mountain.


What is the period of a 25 kg pendulum with a length of 45 m?

A simple pendulum with a length of 45m has a period of 13.46 seconds. If the string is weightless, then the mass of the bob has no effect on the period, i.e. it doesn't matter.


How does accelaration due to gravity effect the time period of a simple 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.


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.


How do the parameters of a simple pendulum affect the period of a pendulum?

The period increases as the square root of the length.


Why degree of amplitude of simple pendulum should not exceed 5?

wind resistance cannot be ignored in considering a simple pendulum. The wind resistance will be proportional to a higher power of the velocity of the pendulum. A small arc of the pendulum will lessen this effect. You could demonstrate this effect for yourself. A piece of paper attached to the pendulum will add to the wind resistance, and you can measure the period both with and without the paper.


What will happen to length of a simple pendulum if its time period is doubled?

time period of simple pendulum is dirctly proportional to sqare root of length...


What would be the period of a pendulum with the length of 10 meters?

For a simple pendulum: Period = 6.3437 (rounded) seconds
