Pendulum - Different Length, Same Mass

Identifier: M: SHM - 015

2 pendula of identical mass but differing length

Concept Overview

Length affects a pendulum's period of oscillation

Lecturer Procedure

Steps to Follow

Pull each pendulum back to the same angle of displacement.
Release.

Expected Result

Since the one pendulum is 4x longer than the other, the longer pendulum will have a period of oscillation that is 2x greater than the short one.
