QUESTION:

Problem 28P

A pendulum makes 36 vibrations in exactly 60s. What is its (a) period, and (b) frequency?

ANSWER:

Solution 28

Step 1 of 2

Part a

We are required to calculate the period of vibration of the pendulum.

36 vibrations take 60 s

Therefore, 1 vibration takes s

                                             s

                                             s

Therefore, the period of vibration is approximately 1.7 s.
