The amplitude of oscillation of a pendulum decays by a factor of 27.0 in 110 s By what factor has its energy decayed in that time?
27^2 = 729 is a factor of energy decayed. (time takes NO role in this case)
Does the time period of oscillation depends on the displacement from the equilibrium position?
No, the time period of oscillation does not depend on the displacement from the equilibrium position. The time period is only affected by the mass and stiffness of the system and is constant for a given system. The amplitude of oscillation does affect the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position.
What is special about pendulum swing?
A pendulum swing demonstrates the principles of harmonic motion, where the period of oscillation remains constant regardless of the amplitude. This is known as isochronism. The motion of a pendulum can be used to measure time accurately and is utilized in pendulum clocks.
What is the significance of the pendulum time constant in the context of oscillations and how does it affect the behavior of a pendulum system?
The pendulum time constant is important in understanding how quickly a pendulum swings back and forth. It is a measure of how fast the pendulum reaches its maximum amplitude and then returns to its starting position. A shorter time constant means the pendulum swings faster, while a longer time constant means it swings slower. This affects the overall behavior of the pendulum system, influencing its period and frequency of oscillation.
What is the effect of amplitude on period of oscillation T?
The amplitude of a wave generally has no effect on the wave's period of oscillation. If it did, then -- As your wife walked away from you while talking, the pitch of her voice would drop steadily. -- A pendulum pulled farther from equilibrium would swing faster or slower, and the pendulum would be useless as a timing source. -- As you drive further out in the country while listening to your favorite radio station in the city, the station would slide down the radio dial, and you'd have to keep tuning for it as it faded.

Mass and pendulum oscillation?
Mass oscillation time period = 2 pi sq rt. (m/k) Pendulum oscillation time period = 2 pi sq rt. (l/g)
How does the length of the pendulum effect the pendulum?
The longer the length of the pendulum, the longer the time taken for the pendulum to complete 1 oscillation.

What happens when you double the mass of a pendulum?
Doubling the mass of a pendulum will not affect the time period of its oscillation. The time period of a pendulum depends on the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity, but not on the mass of the pendulum bob.
What is the amplitude of a pendulum and how does it affect its motion?
The amplitude of a pendulum is the maximum angle it swings away from its resting position. It affects the motion of the pendulum by determining how far it swings back and forth. A larger amplitude means the pendulum swings further, while a smaller amplitude results in a shorter swing. The amplitude also influences the period of the pendulum, which is the time it takes to complete one full swing.
How does the foucault pendulum show time?
A Foucault pendulum is a pendulum with a large length which is free to oscillate in any vertical plane. At the equator, the plane of oscillation remains fixed relative to the earth. Elsewhere, the plane of oscillation rotates, at a speed that is related to the latitude of the location. In Paris, where Foucault's pendulum is located, the plane of the pendulum's oscillation moves at approx 11 degrees per hour. This movement can be used to tell the time.
What is thte Accurate way to measure the time for one oscillation of the pendulum?
We could reduce random errors by taking the average of the time taken for one oscillation.
A pendulum has a length L and time period T for completing one oscillation.?
The time period T of a pendulum is given by T = 2π√(L/g), where g is the acceleration due to gravity. It is the time taken for the pendulum to complete one full oscillation. The length of the pendulum, L, affects the time period - longer pendulums have longer time periods.
