A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so it can swing freely. The period of swing of a simple pendulum depends on its length (how far the mass is from the pivot) and is is independent of the mass of the weight. This means that you do not need to worry about the weight except to say that it must be heavy enough not to be disturbed by air currents.

Why a compound pendulum is called equivalent simple pendulum?
Compound pendulum is a physical pendulum whereas a simple pendulum is ideal pendulum. The difference is that in simple pendulum centre of mass and centre of oscillation are at the same distance.
The weight on a pendulum is called?
The weight on a pendulum is a 'mass' or a 'bob'.
When a pendulum clock is taken from sea level to the top of a high mountain it will?
..weigh less and the pendulum will swing at a slower rate. It might become more valuable (high mountain areas have less access to fine clocks than many sea level communities).
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.
How to find the length of a pendulum?
The length of a pendulum can be found by measuring the distance from the point of suspension to the center of mass of the pendulum bob. This distance is known as the length of the pendulum.

How much time it take if the pendulum is relesed at angle 1.75 degrees instead of 3.5 degrees?
The period of the pendulum is unchanged by the angle of swing. See link.
Why a compound pendulum is called equivalent simple pendulum?
Compound pendulum is a physical pendulum whereas a simple pendulum is ideal pendulum. The difference is that in simple pendulum centre of mass and centre of oscillation are at the same distance.
Can you use simple pendulum in moon?
Yes. The period of the pendulum (the time it takes it swing back and forth once) depends on the length of the pendulum, and also on how strong gravity is. The moon is much smaller and less massive than the earth, and as a result, gravity is considerably weaker. This would make the period of a pendulum longer on the moon than the period of the same pendulum would be on earth.

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.
