Why does the period length of a pendulum increase when its amplitude is increased?

If you'll do some careful measurements, you'll find that it doesn't happen that way.
The period of a pendulum depends on its length, but not on how far you pull it to start it swinging.

How does amplitude of a pendulum affect frequency?
it doesnt affect the amplitude as the mass and length remain constant
What will be the effect of time period of a simple pendulum if its mass is doubled and its amplitude is halved?
The PERIOD of a Simple Pendulum is affected by its LENGTH, and NOT by its Mass or the amplitude of its swing. So, in your case, the Period of the Pendulum's swing would remain UNCHANGED!
What are the factors that affect the period of a pendulum?
In an ideal pendulum, the only factors that affect the period of a pendulum are its length and the acceleration due to gravity. The latter, although often taken to be constant, can vary by as much as 5% between sites. In a real pendulum, the amplitude will also have an effect; but if the amplitude is relatively small, this can safely be ignored.
What is frequency of pendulem?
It's not always the same. The frequency of a pendulum depends on its length, on gravity, on the pendulum's exact shape, and on the amplitude. For a small amplitude, and for a pendulum that has all of its mass concentrated in one point, the period is 2 x pi x square root of (L / g) (where L=length, g=gravity). The frequency, of course, is the reciprocal of this.
What is the relationship between gravity and the length of pendulum?
i dont really know--inertia is the thing that jerks you forward if the bus you are riding in suddenly stops and the period of a pendulum is how long it takes the pendulum to complete a full swing
How can you increase the period of a pendulum?
Increase the length of the pendulum
How does amplitude of a pendulum affect frequency?
it doesnt affect the amplitude as the mass and length remain constant
Cloud the pendulum be changed to increase the period of the pendulum?
Yes. You can increase the period by moving the pendulum to a location where the gravitational force is weaker.Alternatively, you can increase the effective length of the pendulum. The pendulum may be of fixed length, but you can still increase its effective length by adding mass to any point below its centre of gravity.Yes.

How does the amplitude of the pendulum affect the pendulum?
It messes up the math. For large amplitude swings, the simple relation that the period of a pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of the length of the pendulum (only, assuming constant gravity) no longer holds. Specifically, the period increases with increasing amplitude.

How many times is the period of the pendulum increased or decreased when its length is increased four times?
Time period is directly proportional to the square root of the length So as we increase the length four times then period would increase by ./4 times ie 2 times.
Explain how the length of a string affects the motion of a simple pendulum?
You mean the length? We can derive an expression for the period of oscillation as T = 2pi ./(l/g) Here l is the length of the pendulum. So as length is increased by 4 times then the period would increase by 2 times.
What effect would the temperature have on the time kept by pendulum clock if the pendulum rod increased in length with an increase in temperature?
A longer pendulum will result in a longer period. The clock would go slower.

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.
How is the period of the pendulum affected by its length?
the time period of a pendulum is proportional to the square root of length.if the length of the pendulum is increased the time period of the pendulum also gets increased. we know the formula for the time period , from there we can prove that the time period of a pendulum is directly proportional to the effective length of the pendulum. T=2 pi (l\g)^1\2 or, T isproportionalto (l/g)^1/2 or, T is proportional to square root of the effective length.
