Answer:
Period, T = 27.84 seconds
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Length of pendulum = 2m
We know that acceleration due to gravity on earth is equal to 9.8 m/s²
To find the period of oscillation of the simple pendulum;
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
[tex] Period, T = 2 \pi \sqrt {lg} [/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] Period, T = 2 * 3.142 * \sqrt {2*9.8} [/tex]
[tex] Period, T = 6.284 * \sqrt {19.6} [/tex]
[tex] Period, T = 6.284 * 4.43 [/tex]
Period, T = 27.84 seconds
