What forces and motion are in a pendulum swing?
That would have to be perpetual motion
Meaning of Oscillatory motion?
a motion that varies up and down, or left and right, about a certain position. For example the pendulum of a clock, the motion of a swing, a wave on the beach, a mechanical vibration, etc.
What makes a swinging clock swing?
The pendulum acts as an escape(Anchor) mechanism faciltating the movements of the clock - face e.g. the hour and minute hands . "An escapement is the mechanism in a mechanical clock that maintains the swing of the pendulum and advances the clock's wheels at each swing. " Excerpt from Wikipedia . See links .
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 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.

20 examples of periodic motion?
20 examples of periodic motion: Ceiling fan Heart beats Clock Moon moving around the earth Child swinging on a swing Ferris wheel going round and round Jumping up and down on a bed Waves Guitar string Vibrating Teeter-totter

Why must a pendulum swing through a small angle?
A pendulum can swing through any angle you want. But because of the mathematical approximations you make when you analyze the motion of the pendulum, your predictions are only accurate for a pendulum with a small arc.

What Causes of pendulum to swing?
i think that it might be gravity are we talking bout a clock? or someting on a string?
What are some examples for a pendulum?
grand father clock, a rocking ship at a ride park, and a swing set.
What are the physics of a swing?
a swing is basically a pendulum, meaning it oscillates as simple harmonic motion. It is not much different from a mass on a string in other words
