How is bar pendulum better than simple pendulum?
Bar pendulum has lesser air friction while it oscillates to and fro.
Discussion of the measurement of gravity by a bar pendulum?
You can use a simple pendulum, measure how long one period takes, then use the formula for a pendulum, and solve for gravitational acceleration.
What energy does pendulum have?
When the pendulum is at its highest point or amplitude, it has the highest potential energy. When it passes by its point of equilibriu, it has the highest kinetic energy.
How the motion of simple pendulum is affected if it is placed at the center of earth?
If the plumb point of a pendulum is the center of earth, the pendulum will make diametrical oscillations
Time period of a pendulum?
For a heavy weight on the end of a weightless string ("a simple pendulum") the period is 2.pi.squareroot(L/g) where L is the length of the string and g is the acceleration due to gravity. If the weight of the pendulum is not wholly at the end (as in a heavy rod instead of a light string) then replace L by k2/L where L is (as before) the distance to the centre of gravity below the suspension point, and k is the radius of gyration of the whole suspended part, inculding the arm of the pendulum as well as any weights ("compound pendulum").
What is pendalam?
Simple pendulum is a term related to physics. A Simple pendulum coined as a single point mass which is held in suspension held from a string at a fixed point.

What factors affects the pendulum?
There are a number of things that affect the pendulum and how it operates. Let's just start setting them down. The mass of the pendulum and its string, cable, rod, or whatever it is that it is suspended from. The length of the suspension cable or rod. The nature of the pivot point from which the suspension is tied, or, more specifically, the friction generated by the pivot. The air resistance to the pendulum and its suspension. The latitude at which it is operated (because a small amount of torque will be applied at anything more than 0o). The nature and loss of the driving mechanism for the continued movement of the pendulum. The temperature of the surrounds of the pendulum and its mechanism.

How does a pendulums period vary with the length of its mass With Gravitational acceleration?
The length of the pendulum is measured from the pendulum's point of suspension to the center of mass of its bob. Its amplitude is the string's angular displacement from its vertical or its equilibrium position.
Why time periods is equal of pendulum?
A simple pendulum, ideally consists of a large mass suspended from a fixed point by an inelastic light string. These ensure that the length of the pendulum from the point of suspension to its centre of mass is constant. If the pendulum is given a small initial displacement, it undergoes simple harmonic motion (SHM). Such motion is periodic, that is, the time period for oscillations are the same.
What variables might affect the number of cycles the pendulum makes in 15 seconds?
Length of the rope, speed at which the pendulum is moving, friction between the rope and the air, the rope and its suspension point, and within the rope itself.
What affects the pendulum?
Many things.Some of these are:movement of its point of suspension,precession caused by the earth's rotation,air resistance, wind,very massive objects brought nearby,thermal expansion or contraction,humidity or other factors altering the means of suspension.
What happens to acceleration of pendulum at its lowest point of its swing?
The acceleration of a pendulum is zero at the lowest point of its swing.
The amplitude of the pendulum?
The amplitude of a pendulum is the distance between its equilibrium point and the farthest point that it reaches during each oscillation.
Is it dangerous for dogs to walk on suspension bridges?
Somthing about the pendulum effect. Remember physics class???
When is a pendulum at equilibrium?
The equilibrium point of a pendulum is when it does not oscillate and is quite stable. It does not count if you interfere with the movement of the pendulum (eg.: by holding it).
