A physical pendulum composed of a solid sphere with radius R = 0.500m, is hanged from a ceiling by a string of length equal to the radius. What are the (a) angular frequency, (b) period, (c) frequency of the system for small angles of oscillation? The moment of inertia of the pendulum about its axis of rotation is I = 22/5 mR2.
