Not at all, as long as the mass of the 'bob' is large
compared to the mass of the string.

Does changing the mass of the pendulum affect the number of swings?
No. Only the length of the string and the value of g does.
What are the physical parameters in the investigation of a simple pendulum?
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).
What are the factor affecting on the simple pendulum?
The factors that affect a simple pendulum are; length; angular displacement; and mass of the bong.
How does amplitude of a pendulum affect frequency?
it doesnt affect the amplitude as the mass and length remain constant
How does mass affect pendulum frequency?
It doesn't. Only the length of the pendulum and the strength of the gravitational field alter the period/frequency.

What is the length of a pendulum?
it is the distance from the point at which it pivots/swings to its center of mass

Which variables made no difference in the number of swings?
Assuming that this question concerns a pendulum: there are infinitely many possible answers. Among these are: the name of the person swinging the pendulum, the colour of the pendulum, the day of the week on which the experiment is conducted, the mass of the pendulum, my age, etc.

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
What is the effect of mass on number of swings in pendulum experiment?
While we consider the pendulum experiment, we consider so many assumptions that the string is inelastic and there is no air friction to the movement of the bob. With all these, we derive the expression for the time period of the pendulum as T = 2 pi sqrt (l/g) Here, in no way, mass of the bob comes to the scene. So, mass of the bob does not have any effect on the time period or its reciprocal value, namely, frequency. ie number of swings in one second.
What the time periods of a simple pendulum at equator of the earth?
For small swings of a mass suspended on a weightless string, the period is given by T = 2 pi sqrt (a/g) where a is the length of the pendulum and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
What factors affect the period of a pendulum?
In a simple pendulum, with its entire mass concentrated at the end of a string, the period depends on the distance of the mass from the pivot point. A physical pendulum's period is affected by the distance of the centre-of-gravity of the pendulum arm to the pivot point, its mass and its moment of inertia about the pivot point. In real life the pendulum period can also be affected by air resistance, temperature changes etc.
WHAT IS the term for the mass at the end of a pendulum?
The mass at the end of the pendulum is the bob
