I'd guess that if it swings 10 times, it makes 10 swings.
time for 10 swings will be of 15.0 seconds time for 1 swing will ne of 15.0 seconds _____ 10 =1.5 seconds because the pendulum goes from one place to onther in 1.5 seconds
The length of a pendulum affects its period of oscillation, which is the time taken for one complete swing back and forth. A longer pendulum will have a longer period and therefore fewer swings in a given time period, like 10 seconds. Conversely, a shorter pendulum will have a shorter period and more swings in the same time frame.

The time it takes for a pendulum to make one swing is almost exactly the same regardless if it swings thru any small angle. Once the angle starts getting large, like more then 10 deg, the difference in swing time becomes noticable. If you use a pendulum as a clock,so each second is one swing, then if you start the pendulum swinging at about 10 deg it will continue to be one second per swing even as it runs down to a smaller swing angle.

First take the average of your times:(12.6 + 12.7 + 12.5 + 12.6 + 12.7) / 5 = 12.62This is your average time for 20 oscillations. The period is the time for one oscillation, and therefore the period is 12.62/20 = 0.631 seconds.A complete oscillation is when the pendulum swings from the start position to the opposite position on the swing and back again. Assuming this is what you counted twenty of, then your pendulum is 10 cm long.If you counted 20 swings to each side, then you really only counted 10 oscillations. This means that your period would be 1.262, and would suggest that your pendulum is 40cm long.
For a simple pendulum: Period = 6.3437 (rounded) seconds

The motion of the simple pendulum will be in simple harmonic if it is in oscillation.
Take a pendulum that is 10 meters off of the ground. As the Earth rotates, the pendulum will also rotate. Measure the time it takes for the pendulum to return to the exact spot. It equals 23 h 56 m 4 s.
Scale of 1-10? 100. They're bloody epic.
