How can you time a pendulum swing accurately?
one swing may be too fast to time accurately
What happen to the time period if its lenght of the pendulum is changed?
If the length of a pendulum is increased, the pendulum will take longer to complete a swing, and the clock will slow down. Shortening the pendulum will speed up the clock.
What is special about pendulum swing?
No matter how high you set a pendulum, the amount of time for it to take one arc (maximum to maximum) will always remain the same.
What do the length of the cord and gravity determine for a pendulum?
They determine the length of time of the pendulum's swing ... its 'period'.
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!

If pendulum is made to swing in water compare the time taken for this pendulum to come to a complete stop with the time taken by a pendulum swinging in air?
The pendulum will take more time in air to stop completely in comparision with water
The time for a pendulum to swing is what?
the period

What swing back and forth and measures time?
A pendulum
How much time it take if the pendulum is relesed at angle 1.75 degrees instead of 3.5 degrees?
The period of the pendulum is unchanged by the angle of swing. See link.

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 clock pendulum?
The pendulum of a clock is the long weighted bar that swings back and forth in the case below the clock. It was discovered several hundred years ago that the time it takes for one swing of a particular pendulum is constant, no matter how big or small the swing is. It can, therefore, be used to measure time.
