All pendulums swing. They wouldn't be pendulums if they didn't.

What would happen if you let a pendulum go on swinging?

Obviously, it will stop after sometime , after swinging. It is because we cannot apply energy continuously to the swinging pendulum.

Why doesn't a pendulum keep swinging forever?

Most pendulums are operated by a spring, when the spring looses its tention it can no longer keep the pendulum swinging. Others may work on a different system but the system in not perpetual and will loose its ability to keep the pendulum swinging. As a point of interest you canot use a pendulum in space.

Yes, a pendulum will eventually stop swinging due to factors such as air resistance and friction, which gradually slow down its motion.

What form of energy is demonstrated by the motion of pendulum swinging back and forth?

The kinetic energy is demonstrated by the motion of a pendulum swinging back and forth. As the pendulum moves, it converts potential energy (from its raised position) into kinetic energy (from its motion).

What keeps a pendulum clock swinging backwards and forwards?

A pendulum clock swings back and forth due to the force of gravity pulling the pendulum downward as it swings. The inertia of the swinging pendulum keeps it moving in a continuous motion, with the escapement mechanism regulating its timing to ensure accuracy.


Does weight affect the swinging speed of a pendulum?

The period of the pendulum is dependent on the length of the pendulum to the center of mass, and independent from the actual mass.The weight, or mass of the pendulum is only related to momentum, but not speed.Ignoring wind resistance, the speed of the fall of objects is dependent on the acceleration factor due to gravity, 9.8 m/s/s which is independent of the actual weight of the objects.
