A pendulum is an object that is attached to a pivot point so it can swing without friction. This object is subject to a restoring force that will accelerate it toward an equilibrium position. When the pendulum is displaced from its place of rest, the restoring force will cause the pendulum to oscillate about the equilibrium position. In other words, a weight attached to a string swings back and forth.
A basic example is the simple gravity pendulum or bob pendulum. This is a weight (or bob) on the end of a mass less string, which, when given an initial push, will swing back and forth under the influence of gravity over its central (lowest) point.
The regular motion of pendulums can be used for time keeping, and pendulums are used to regulate pendulum clocks.
Compound pendulum is a physical pendulum whereas a simple pendulum is ideal pendulum. The difference is that in simple pendulum centre of mass and centre of oscillation are at the same distance.
A shorter pendulum has a shorter period. A longer pendulum has a longer period.
bifilar pendulum
maybe it is a pendulum
A heavier pendulum will swing longer due to its greater inertia.

A shorter pendulum has a shorter period. A longer pendulum has a longer period.
The longer the length of the pendulum, the longer the time taken for the pendulum to complete 1 oscillation.

A heavier pendulum will swing longer due to its greater inertia.
The physical parameters of a simple pendulum include (1) the length of the pendulum, (2) the mass of the pendulum bob, (3) the angular displacement through which the pendulum swings, and (4) the period of the pendulum (the time it takes for the pendulum to swing through one complete oscillation).
Frictionlist pendulum is an example of the pendulum of a clock, a reversible process, free.
A longer pendulum will have a smaller frequency than a shorter pendulum.
The pendulum frequency is dependent upon the length of the pendulum. The torque is the turning force of the pendulum.
Compound pendulum is a physical pendulum whereas a simple pendulum is ideal pendulum. The difference is that in simple pendulum centre of mass and centre of oscillation are at the same distance.
The period of a pendulum is affected by the angle created by the swing of the pendulum, the length of the attachment to the mass, and the weight of the mass on the end of the pendulum.
