प्रश्न
Define the terms : time period as related to a simple pendulum.
उत्तर १
Time period: This is the time taken to complete one oscillation. It is measured in second (s).
उत्तर २
Time period - The time taken by a simple pendulum for oscillation is known as the time period of a simple pendulum.

How is the time period of a simple pendulum affected, if at all, in the following situations:
- The length is made four times.
- The acceleration due to gravity is reduced to one-fourth.
How do you measure the time period of a given pendulum? Why do you note the time for more than one oscillation?
Two simple pendulums A and B have lengths 1.0 m and 4.0 m, respectively, at a certain place. Which pendulum will make more oscillations in 1 min? Explain your answer.
State how does the time period of a simple pendulum depend on (a) length of pendulum, (b) mass of bob, (c) amplitude of oscillation and (d) acceleration due to gravity.

You can perform an interesting activity when you visit a park to ride a swing. You will require a watch. Make the swing oscillate without anyone sitting on it. Find its time period in the same way as you did for the pendulum. Make sure that there are no jerks in the motion of the swing. Ask one of your friends to sit on the swing. Push it once and let it swing naturally. Again measure its time period. Repeat the activity with different persons sitting on the swing. Compare the time period of the swing measured in different cases. What conclusions do you draw from this activity?
