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!
we should keep the amplitude of simple pendulum small because we have to make a very small angle so that we can neglecting value of sin
no it doesnt affect the period of pendulum. the formulea that we know for simple pendulum is T = 2pie root (L/g)
Because a larger angle will exacerbate the dampening effect. The dampening effect is an effect that tends to reduce the amplitude of any oscillations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping
You can build a simple pendulum - one that has most of its mass concentrated in a small place, at the end of the pendulum. Measure the pendulum's length, and measure how long it takes to go back and forth. Use the formula for the period of a pendulum, solving for "g".
Air resistance against the bob and string and friction in the pivot make the amplitude of a simple pendulum decrease.

It messes up the math. For large amplitude swings, the simple relation that the period of a pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of the length of the pendulum (only, assuming constant gravity) no longer holds. Specifically, the period increases with increasing amplitude.

wind resistance cannot be ignored in considering a simple pendulum. The wind resistance will be proportional to a higher power of the velocity of the pendulum. A small arc of the pendulum will lessen this effect. You could demonstrate this effect for yourself. A piece of paper attached to the pendulum will add to the wind resistance, and you can measure the period both with and without the paper.

The change of amplitude affects the time of one cycle of a pendulum if the amplitude is big. In such a case, time increases as amplitude increases. In the case of a small amplitude, the time is very slightly affected by amplitude and is considered negligible.
It does oscillate. We have to use the word 'vibration' if the amplitude of oscillation is very very low. The prong of a fork vibrates. But simply pendulum oscillates.
The amplitude of a pendulum is the distance between its equilibrium point and the farthest point that it reaches during each oscillation.
The pendulum swings twice as far.
