What are the examples of the pendulum motion?
transverse wave is an example of pendulum motion.
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.
What is the principle behind pendulum clock?
A pendulum clock operates on the principle that the period of a pendulum (the time it takes to swing back and forth) is constant and determined by the length of the pendulum. By counting the swings of the pendulum, the clock can keep time accurately. The mechanism of the clock uses gears to translate the regular swinging motion of the pendulum into the movement of the clock's hands.
How does a pendulum clock work?
A pendulum clock works by utilizing the regular swinging motion of a suspended weight on a rod (the pendulum) to regulate the passage of time. The period of the pendulum's swing is usually set to one second, so each swing back and forth represents one second passing. The swinging motion of the pendulum powers the gears in the clock mechanism, allowing the hands to move in a precise and consistent manner to indicate the time.
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 is the lead balls on strings that swing back and fourth that have to do with telling time?
As far as I know they have more to do with Newton's law that every action has a opposite and equal reaction. As far as them telling time it may have to do with the pendulum and how long each period (swing) is.

What objects use oscillating motion?
Examples of objects that use oscillating motion include a pendulum on a clock, a swing at a playground, and a vibrating tuning fork. These objects move back and forth in a repeated pattern around a central point, creating a characteristic oscillating motion.
Would you find a pendulum on a colck?
Yes, a clock can have a pendulum. Pendulum clocks use a swinging weight on a rod to regulate its timekeeping mechanism. The swing of the pendulum controls the movement of the clock's hands.
