Question

The length of a pendulum in simple harmonic motion is 36 m.

What is the period of the pendulum's motion?
A.6.0 s
B 9.0s
C 12s
D 23s

Answer 1

The period of the pendulum is C) 12 s

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is given by:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, we have:

L = 36 m

$g = 9.8 m/s^2$ (on Earth)

Substituting into the equation, we find

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{36}{9.8}}=12.0 s$

So, the period of the pendulum is 12 seconds.
