Why time period of pendulum depends on length not other factors?

It does depend on the force of gravity where the pendulum is located.
There are other factors that it depends on but their contribution, in normal circumstances, is negligible enough to ignore.

How does the period of a pendulum related to how hard the pendulum is pushed?
It shouldn't relate at all. The period of a pendulum depends only on its length, not on how far it swings side-to-side.

How does length effect the period of a pendulum?
A longer pendulum has a longer period.
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 can you increase the period of a pendulum?
Increase the length of the pendulum
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 vary?
The period depends only on the acceleration due to gravity and the length of the pendulum. Gravitational acceleration depends on the location on the surface of the earth: latitude, altitude play a part. Also, some pendulums are subject to thermal expansion and so the length changes. These factors do impact on the period of a pendulum.
How to determine the value of g?
That can be determined fairly easily with a pendulum. The period of the pendulum depends on the length of the pendulum and the value of "g".

Does the weight effect the period of a pendulum?
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.
What are two factors that alter the oscillation period of a pendulum?
1. Length of the pendulum 2. acceleration due to gravity at that place
What factor has the greatest effect on the period of a pendulum?
Assuming the pendulum referred to s asimple pendulum of an arm and a weight the major factors on the period are the local attraction of gravity and the length of the arm.
What effect does shortening the length of the pendulum have on the period of the pendulum?
A shorter pendulum has a shorter period. A longer pendulum has a longer period.
How does length effect the period of a pendulum?
A longer pendulum has a longer period.
What is the length of a pendulum with a period of 1.49 s?
pendulum length (L)=1.8081061073513foot pendulum length (L)=0.55111074152067meter
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.
