The period depends on both the length of the pendulum and the force due to gravity. They are related by Huygen's law, T = 2π√(l/g). Assuming a gravity of 10Nkg-1 (roughly equal to Earth's 9.81 and a common approximation) it would need to be 2.5/pi2, or about 0.253099 metres.

What is the length of a pendulum whose period on the moon matches the period of a 1.94-m-long pendulum on the earth?
Nice problem! I get 32.1 centimeters.
If the length of a simple pendulum is doubled what will be the change in its time period?
ts period will become sqrt(2) times as long.
Does a short or a long pendulum have a longer period?
The time of swing of a pendulum is T = 2π √ (l/g) where l is the length of the pendulum. As T ∝√l (Time is directly proportional to the square root of l) then, the longer the pendulum, the greater is the period. Therefore longer pendulums have longer periods than shorter pendulums.
The time period of a simple pendulum having infinite length will be?
It would tend towards infinity
What is the relationship between the length of the string of a pendulum and the number of swings?
There's no relationship between the length of the pendulum and the number of swings.However, a shorter pendulum has a shorter period, i.e. the swings come more often.So a short pendulum has more swings than a long pendulum has in the same amountof time.
How long must a simple pendulum be in order to have a period of one second?
A simple pendulum must be approximately 0.25 meters long to have a period of one second. This length is calculated using the formula for the period of a simple pendulum, which is T = 2π√(L/g), where T is the period, L is the length of the pendulum, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. By substituting T = 1 second and g = 9.81 m/s^2, you can solve for L.
Does the force gravity speed up the period of a pendulum?
No, the force of gravity does not affect the period of a pendulum. The period of a pendulum is determined by the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity. Changing the force of gravity would not change the period as long as the length of the pendulum remains constant.
What is the period of a 0.85m long pendulum?
The period of a pendulum can be calculated using the equation T = 2π√(l/g), where T is the period in seconds, l is the length of the pendulum in meters, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2). Substituting the values, the period of a 0.85m long pendulum is approximately 2.43 seconds.
What is the length of a pendulum whose period on the moon matches the period of a 1.94-m-long pendulum on the earth?
Nice problem! I get 32.1 centimeters.
What property of a pendulum does not affect its period?
The mass of the pendulum does not affect its period. The period of a pendulum is only affected by the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity.
What is the period of a pendulum that takes one second to make a complete back and forth vibration?
The period of a pendulum that takes one second to complete a full oscillation is 2 seconds. Each back and forth swing (oscillation) consists of two periods, one forward and one backward. So, the total time for a complete back and forth vibration is 2 seconds.
What happen to the time period of pendulum if the mass of bob is changed?
The period of a pendulum is not affected by the mass of the bob. The period is determined by the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity. Changing the mass of the bob will not alter the time period of the pendulum's swing.
If the mass of bob of a simple pendulum is doubled its time period is what?
The time period of a simple pendulum is not affected by the mass of the bob, as long as the amplitude of the swing remains small. So, doubling the mass of the bob will not change the time period of the pendulum.
What effect does decreasing the weight of the bob have on the period of the pendulum?
Decreasing the weight of the bob will have little to no effect on the period of the pendulum. The period of a pendulum is mainly determined by the length of the string and the acceleration due to gravity, not the weight of the bob. The period remains relatively constant as long as the length of the string and the gravitational acceleration remain constant.
Why do people with long legs generally walk with a slower stride than people with short legs?
Natural period of a long pendulum is slower than for a short pendulum.
What happens to the period of a pendulum when the mass is doubled?
The period of a pendulum is not affected by changes in its mass as long as the length and gravitational acceleration remain constant. Therefore, doubling the mass of a pendulum will not change its period.
If the length of a simple pendulum is doubled what will be the change in its time period?
ts period will become sqrt(2) times as long.
