Time period is 120/83.7=1.43 s and
g = l / [(T / 2pi)^2] =0.521/[(1.43/2pi)^2]=10 m/s
g = l / [(T / 2pi)^2] =0.521/[(1.43/2pi)^2]=10 m/s
(a) The period of the pendulum is 1.43 seconds
(b) The value of g is 10.2 m/s.
What is the period of a pendulum?
Period is the time taken for a pendulum to complete one oscillation
(a) To calculate the period of the pendulum, we use the formula below.
Formula:
- T = (t×60)/∅............ Equation 1
Where:
- t = Total time
- ∅ = Number of revolution
- T = Period of the pendulum
From the question,
Given:
- t = 2
- ∅ = 83.7
Substitute the given values into equation 1
- T = (2×60)/83.7
- T = 120/83.7
- T = 1.43 seconds.
(b) To calculate the value of g, we use the formula below.
Formula:
- T = 2π√(L/g).............. Equation 2
Where:
- L = Length of the pendulum
- g = acceleration due to gravity
- T = Period of the pendulum
- π = pie.
From the question,
Given:
- L = 52.1 cm = 0.521 m
- T = 1.43 seconds
- π = 3.14
Substitute these values into equation 2 and solve for g
- 1.43 = 2(3.14)√(0.521/g)
- 1.43/6.28 = √(0.521/g)
- 0.226 = √(0.521/g)
- 0.521/g = 0.226²
- 0.521/g = 0.051
- g = 0.521/0.051
- g = 10.2 m/s²
Hence, (a) The period of the pendulum is 1.43 seconds (b) The value of g is 10.2 m/s.
