How many forces are acting on a simple pendulum?
At rest, tension in the string and weight of the bob are the two forces both equal and opposite. During its displaced position, the weight of the bod, tension of the string and restoring force all the three would act on it
What provides the centripetal force that keeps the motion of a pendulum oscillation?
Could be the tension in the string from which it hangs.
How does pendulum stops?
A pendulum stops, because it gradually looses its energy on friction force and tension of strings. Even on the moon, where there is no air to have friction with, it will still stop, though slower, because there is still friction with strings and the string's tension.
What is the period of a pedelum?
The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum displaced by a small angle is: T = (2*PI) * SquareRoot(L/g) where T is the period in seconds, L is the length of the string, and g is the gravitional field strength = 9.81 N/Kg. This equation is for a simple pendulum only. A simple pendulum is an idealised pendulum consisting of a point mass at the end of an inextensible, massless, frictionless string. You can use the simple pendulum model for any pendulum whose bob mass is much geater than the length of the string. For a physical (or real) pendulum: T = (2*PI) * SquareRoot( I/(mgr) ) where I is the moment of inertia, m is the mass of the centre of mass, g is the gravitational field strength and r is distance to the pivot from the centre of mass. This equation is for a pendulum whose mass is distributed not just at the bob, but throughout the pendulum. For example, a swinging plank of wood. If the pendulum resembles a point mass on the end of a string, then use the first equation.
What can make the pendulum swing faster?
By shorten the string of the pendulum
What causes a pendulum to continue swinging?
Gravity and the tension in the string.
What forces cause a pendulum to continue swinging?
Gravity and the tension in the string.

Can an ideal simple pendulum realize?
no we cannot realize an ideal simple pendulum because for this the string should be weightless and inextendible.
What provides the centripetal force that keeps the motion of a pendulum oscillation?
Could be the tension in the string from which it hangs.
Why does the amplitude of a simple pendulum decrease?
Air resistance against the bob and string and friction in the pivot make the amplitude of a simple pendulum decrease.
What is pendalam?
Simple pendulum is a term related to physics. A Simple pendulum coined as a single point mass which is held in suspension held from a string at a fixed point.
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.

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.
