What will be the effect of time period of a simple pendulum if its mass is doubled and its amplitude is halved?

The PERIOD of a Simple Pendulum is affected by its LENGTH, and NOT by its Mass or the amplitude of its swing. So, in your case, the Period of the Pendulum's swing would remain UNCHANGED!


What factors affect the swing of a pendulum?

Air resistance, Gravity, Friction, The attachment of the pendulum to the support bar, Length of String, Initial Energy (if you just let it go it will go slower than if you swing it) and the Latitude. Amplitude only affects large swings (in small swing the amplitude is doesn't affect the swing time). Mass of the pendulum does not affect the swing time. A formula for predicting the swing of a pendulum: T=2(pi)SQRT(L/g) T = time pi = 3.14... SQRT = square root L = Length g = gravity
