Question

For the "harmonic motion: pendulum" experiment, the accepted, experimental and percent discrepancy is given in the attached images. Based on this, what's the conclusion of the experiment?

"The purpose of this lab experiment is to prove that the period of the simple pendulum is independent of both the mass of the hanging object and the angle of displacement of the pendulum. The experimental value for acceleration due to gravity using the period of the pendulum is also calculated."

Accepted value of g= 9.80m/s^2

Experimental value of g=10.04 m/s^2

Percent discrepancy= 2.39%
