Suppose that a pendulum has a period of 1.5 seconds. How long does it take to make a complete back and forth vibration? Is this 1.5 second period pendulum longer or shorter in length than a 1 second period pendulum?

Such a device has actually been constructed. Its motion is found to require 0.5 second back

followed by 0.5 second forth, for a total period of one second.

Well, T = 2PIE x Sqroot (L/g)

so if T = 1, then just divide by 2PIE and Square it, then multiply by g. g is gravity
