2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define a simple pendulum.
Think about its structure and motion.
What is the formula for the time period of a pendulum?
Refer to how length and gravity affect the time period.
What is the time period of a simple pendulum proportional to?
Refer to the formula relating time period to pendulum length.
True or False: The restoring force of the pendulum is always directed away from its mean position.
Consider the direction of the restoring torque.
A 1.5 m long pendulum is on Earth. If it swings in a vacuum, calculate its period.
Use the acceleration due to gravity on Earth.
How would a pendulum behave differently on Mars compared to Earth? Consider the effects of gravity.
Think about how gravity influences the period based on its value.
