What happens when you increase the length of a pendulum?
The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.)
What happens to the period of a simple pendulum when the length is doubled?
a) If the length is doubled, the period will increase by a factor of √2 . Doubling the mass of the bob will half the period.
How will each factor affect the period of the pendulum?
The mass and angle are the only factors that affect the period of a pendulum. b. The mass, the angle and the length are the three variables affecting the period.
What happens to the period of a pendulum if the length is quadrupled?
If you quadruple the length of the string, the oscillation frequency goes down by a factor of two, which means the period doubles.
How does the length of the pendulum affect the height?
Correct answer: Increasing the length of the pendulum’s string and increasing the angle of displacement both increase the distance the pendulum must travel in a single period, increasing its potential energy at its maximum height, and therefore the maximum velocity at its lowest point.
When the length of the pendulum gets longer the period?
Two pendula with different lengths will different periods; the pendulum with the longer string will have the longer period.
What happens to the time period of a simple pendulum if its length is increased up to four times?
2πis also a constant. Therefore we can say that time period is directly proportional to square root of length of the pendulum. Therefore as the length of the pendulum becomes four times, the time period becomes the 2 times.
How will the period of a simple pendulum at a given place change when I Its length is doubled and II if the mass of the bob is doubled?
What is the effect on the time period of a simple pendulum if the mass off the bob is doubled? It means T is independent of mass of the bob m. hence, if mass is doubled, T will not change.
Does the period depend on the length of the pendulum?
The period of a pendulum does not depend on the mass of the ball, but only on the length of the string. Two pendula with different masses but the same length will have the same period. Two pendula with different lengths will different periods; the pendulum with the longer string will have the longer period.
How does changing the length affect the period of a pendulum?
How does the length of a pendulum’s string affect its period? (Answer: A pendulum with a longer string has a longer period, meaning it takes a longer time to complete one back and forth cycle when compared with a pendulum with a shorter string.
