It is a wave like because the curve it makes is the amplitude as that of wave

∙ 9y agoA pendulum is not considered a wave as it is attached to a pivot. A wave is something that moves forward heading towards something.

What are the examples of the pendulum motion?
transverse wave is an example of pendulum motion.
How do you illustrate graph of a simple pendulum?
A sine-wave graph
How is the motion of a pendulum like that of a wave?
A simple harmonic motion is one for which the acceleration of the body into consideration is proportional its displacement from the mean position and the direction of the acceleration is always directed towards that mean position. It can be shown that, provided that the amplitude of oscillation is small, the motion of a simple pendulum is simple harmonic. All simple harmonic motions follow one rule F=-kx . When the oscillation is small(around 5 °), the motion of simple pendulum is simple harmonic motion.
When you hear an echo you are hearing a of the original sound wave?
The echo thaat you really hear isnt the same sound wave, it is really a small man standing behind you repeating what you just said
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.
What are the examples of the pendulum motion?
transverse wave is an example of pendulum motion.
Is a pendulum a wave?
A pendulum moves in simple harmonic motion. If a graph of the pendulum's motion is drawn with respect with respect to time, the graph will be a sine wave. Pure tones are experienced when the eardrum moves in simple harmonic motion. In these cases "wave" refers not to the thing moving, but to the graph representing the movement.

A wave traced by the motion of a pendulum above a moving surface is a?
Sine curve

What is the motion of a pendulum in water?
The motion of a pendulum in water will be similar to what it is in air, except it will move more slowly and loose energy much more rapidly (unless something with some "power" is keeping it going). The speed of the pendulum should graph like a sine wave with the peaks and troughs denoting the endpoints of the travel of the pendulum in its arc. The slope of the curve at any point will represent the instantaneous acceleration. If the pendulum is released and no energy is put in from outside, the graph of the speed will diminish very quickly and dramatically.
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.
What effect does shortening the length of the pendulum have on the period of the pendulum?
A shorter pendulum has a shorter period. A longer pendulum has a longer period.
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.
Is when a sound wave bounces off an object and returns in the direction from which it came?
that isnt a question...? Perhaps the question was to be something like: "What is happening when a sound wave bounces off an object and returns in the direction from which it came?" Answer: The sound is echoing.
What is flashing pendulum?
maybe it is a pendulum
