It doesn't matter what unit you use to measure the physical length of the

pendulum. As a matter of fact, it doesn't matter what unit you use to measure

the duration of its period either. If both are at rest on the same planet, then

the penduum with the longer string has the longer period. Period!

Units of period of an oscillating pendulum?

"Period" has the dimensions of time. Suitable units are the second, the minute, the hour, the fortnight, etc.


What is the effective length of seconds pendulum?

The effective length of a seconds pendulum is typically around 0.994 meters or about 994 millimeters. This length allows the pendulum to complete one full swing in two seconds, which is why it is called a "seconds pendulum."


What is the purpose of a pendulum?

Pendulums have been used for thousands of years as a time keeping device in various civilizations. Assuming that it is only displaced by a small angle, a pendulum wall have a period of 2pi*√(L/g) where L is the length of the pendulum and g is the acceeleration due to gravity, normally 9.81m/s². One of the cool things about pendulums is that if one is made with a length of one meter, it will have a period of 2.00607 seconds, meaning it will take just slightly more than one second to swing from one side to another.


What is the frequency of a pendulum that has a period of 40 seconds?

The frequency of a pendulum is the reciprocal of its period, so a pendulum with a period of 40 seconds will have a frequency of 0.025 Hz.


What is frequency of a pendulum?

The frequency of a pendulum is the number of complete oscillations it makes in a given time period, usually measured in hertz (Hz). The frequency is dependent on the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity. A longer pendulum or higher gravity will result in a higher frequency.


Period of seconds pendulum?

Time period of a seconds pendulum is 99.3955111cm at a place where the gravitational acceleration is 9.8m/s2


Time period of simple pendulum is three seconds the same pendulum taken at the moon - what will be its new time period?

This pendulum, which is 2.24m in length, would have a period of 7.36 seconds on the moon.


If the period of a pendulum on Earth is 1.8 seconds what is the length of the pendulum?

Approx 80.5 centimetres.


Is the length of seconds pendulum is constant?

yes


A pendulum that takes 5 seconds to make one single swing back and forth has a period of?

The period of a pendulum is the time it takes to complete one full swing back and forth. In this case, the period of the pendulum is 10 seconds (5 seconds for each half of the swing).


What is the length of simple pendulum when it ticks seconds?

known to be seconds pendulum,the length would be almost 1m when acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s2


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

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