How many swings would a 23 cm long pendulum make in 30 seconds?
22
How long is 90 seconds?
about.... 90 seconds
If there is a large boulder on the edge of a shoreline and the wave period is 15 s long how many times is it hit by in a year'?
If the wave period is 15 seconds long, the boulder is hit four times per minute. This means it is hit 2,102,400 times per year.
How long is 120 seconds?
120 seconds = 2 minutes 120 seconds = 0.03 hour
How long is 5 minutes?
300 seconds.
What is the period of a 0.85m long pendulum?
The period of a 0.85 meter long pendulum is 1.79 seconds.
What is a pendulum in science?
A pendulum is a piece of string attached to a 20 g mass that if you double the length it will take twice as long to swing.
If a pendulum has a period of 1.5 seconds how long does it take to make a complete back and forth vibration?
A pendulum with a period of five seconds has a length of 6.21 meters.
How long would you make a swinger to swing 15 times in 15 seconds?
1 time per second
What is a clocks pendulum?
The pendulum of a clock is the long weighted bar that swings back and forth in the case below the clock. It was discovered several hundred years ago that the time it takes for one swing of a particular pendulum is constant, no matter how big or small the swing is. It can, therefore, be used to measure time.

Does the time differ between a long swing of a pendulum compared to a small swing?
Not significantly, unless you start with the pendulum over about 15 degrees or so from the vertical. At large angles the period of the pendulum would increase somewhat, as the restoring force no longer increases linearly with displacement. You will note that clock pendulums generally swing through quite a small angle.
Why does a swinging pendulum lose energy once it is set into motion?
When a pendulum is released to fall, it changes from Potential energy to Kinetic Energy of a moving object. However, due to friction (ie: air resistance, and the pivot point) and gravity the pendulum's swing will slowly die down. A pendulum gets its kinetic energy from gravity on its fall its equilibrium position which is the lowest point to the ground it can fall, however, even in perfect conditions (a condition with no friction) it can never achieve a swing (amplitude) greater than or equal to its previous swing. Every swing that the pendulum makes, it gradually looses energy or else it would continue to swing for eternity without stopping. Extra: Using special metals that react little to temperature, finding a near mass-less rod to swing the bob (the weight) and placing the pendulum in a vacuum has yielded some very long lasting pendulums. While the pendulum will lose energy with every swing, under good conditions the amount of energy that the pendulum loses can be kept relatively small. Some of the best pendulum clocks can swing well over a million times.
The focault pendulum takes 32.5hours to complete a rotation in Paris and 24hours at the polesWhy?
It's really a long story.In general, the plane of a pendulum's swing rotates in a time equal to[ (24) divided by (sine of your latitude) ] hours.That means 24 hours at a pole, 33.9 hours at 45 degrees, and no rotation at all on the equator.This is happening with any pendulum. Ordinarily, we don't notice it, for two reasons:-- The pendulum has to be free to swing in any direction. A flat stick hanging from a pin can't do that.-- The typical pendulum doesn't swing long enough for the rotation of its plane to become noticeable.
How many swings would a 23 cm long pendulum make in 30 seconds?
22
How long does a clock pendulum need to be for a swing of 0.75 seconds?
Use the formula T = 2Pi * Square root (L)/ Square root (g) Set T to .75; L is length of string and g is gravity (9.8 m/s)
What is the relationship between gravity and the length of pendulum?
i dont really know--inertia is the thing that jerks you forward if the bus you are riding in suddenly stops and the period of a pendulum is how long it takes the pendulum to complete a full swing
