What Affects the Period of A Pendulum? |
||
 |
 |
 |
|
Is it the Mass? |
Is it the Amplitude? | Is it the Length? |
 |
 |
 |
| Mass Measured in Grams | Amplitude Measured in Degrees | Length Measured in Centimeters |
 |

| Getting the solution is easy, but proving it and writing a good procedure is a little tougher! | ||
 |
 |
 |
| Not the Mass! | Not the Amplitude! | It is the Length |
| The shorter the length, the faster the period of the pendulum! | ||
| My old, pendulum, grandfather clock is running a bit fast. What can I do to slow it down? | ||
