- The frequency of oscillations of a simple pendulum is given by: j = Vi where g = 9.8 ms? and L is the length of the pendulum. At the time t = 0 two simple pendulums with lengths L1 and L2 had the same angle relative to the vertical direction. Determine the time at which they will have the same angle relative to the vertical direction again, given that L2/L, = 9/25 and f1 = 0.2 sª.arrow_forwardThe simple pendulum is a mechanical device that illustrates several concepts about forces and motion. The simple pendulum uses a string or cord to suspend a mass at some length from a pivot point. The mass is called the bob and when displaced from rest, will move in simple harmonic motion. The movement of a pendulum is the acceleration by gravity on the suspended bob. Newton showed that the acceleration of all bodies by gravity is equal. In other words, the amount of mass does not affect the acceleration from gravity, all bodies fall at the same rate. To test this and also to find the acceleration from gravity, two different masses will be used and the pendulum’s period will be measured. If Newton’s theory is correct, the heavier mass suspended from the same length of string on the pendulum will have the same period. The last thing this experiment will show is that the relationship between the length of the pendulum and the pendulum’s period (the time for one cycle) can be described by…arrow_forwardA body oscillates with simple harmonic mo- tion along the x-axis.
