Any terminal object such as the weight on a pendulum is known as a Bob. It can also be called a Mass
The period of the pendulum is dependent on the length of the pendulum to the center of mass, and independent from the actual mass.The weight, or mass of the pendulum is only related to momentum, but not speed.Ignoring wind resistance, the speed of the fall of objects is dependent on the acceleration factor due to gravity, 9.8 m/s/s which is independent of the actual weight of the objects.
The weight of the 'bob' doesn't, as long as the distance fromthe pivot to the swinging center of mass doesn't change.
The weight on a pendulum is a 'mass' or a 'bob'.
The frequency of a pendulum depends on the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity. It is described by the equation f = 1 / (2π) * √(g / L), where f is the frequency, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and L is the length of the pendulum.
A pendulum swings due to the force of gravity acting on it as it moves back and forth. When the pendulum is released from a raised position, gravity causes it to fall and start swinging. The length of the pendulum and the angle at which it is released also affect how it swings.
Answer: The combined inertia of the arm and pendulum would alter the energy characteristics of the system and throw off the timing. Answer: If the mass of the arm is not negligible, then you can no longer assume (as in an ideal pendulum) that the entire mass is concentrated in the swinging object at the bottom. The center of mass would be higher up. Exactly how high depends on the characteristics of the pendulum; details can be calculated with integral calculus.

Assuming that this question concerns a pendulum: there are infinitely many possible answers. Among these are: the name of the person swinging the pendulum, the colour of the pendulum, the day of the week on which the experiment is conducted, the mass of the pendulum, my age, etc.

To slow down a swinging clock pendulum, one must make it longer. In mechanical clocks, the majority of the mass of the pendulum is contained in the "bob" (a disk or weight) usually at the bottom of the pendulum. If you lower the pendulum bob, the pendulum is lengthened and the pendulum runs slower. This is usually done by turning a nut on a threaded portion of the pendulum just below the bob. Make sure the bob drops as you lower the nut or nothing will change. To raise the rate of the pendulum (make it run faster), you just turn the nut the opposite way.
The simple pendulum model does not take into account some factors that affect actual pendulums. It is a close approximation in many cases. The formulas are much simpler than the formulas for the actual motion of the pendulum. That's why it's called simple. But if the 'swinging angle' is too large the simpler formulas are no longer accurate. Also if the rod, which the pendulum is suspended on, has too large a mass in relation to the pendulum weight, then the simple formulas won't work.
This is a conservation of energy problem. When the pendulum starts out, it has gravitational potential energy; at the bottom of the swing, all of that has been converted to kinetic energy, and when it swings back up, back to gravitational potential energy (which is why speed is greatest at the bottom of the pendulum); in other words, there has to be the same amount of energy (PEgravitational = mass*gravity*height), where mass and gravity are constant.
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.
The period of a pendulum is influenced by the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity. The mass of the pendulum does not affect the period because the force of gravity acts on the entire pendulum mass, causing it to accelerate at the same rate regardless of its mass. This means that the mass cancels out in the equation for the period of a pendulum.
