Consider the pendulum shown in Figure 13–30. Note that the pendulum’s string is stopped by a peg when the bob swings to the left, but moves freely when the bob swings to the right. (a) Is the period of this pendulum greater than, less than, or the same as the period of the same pendulum without the peg? (b) Calculate the period of this pendulum in terms of L and \(\ell\). (c) Evaluate your result for \(L=1.0\ \mathrm m\) and \(\ell=0.25\ \mathrm m\).

ANSWER:
Step 1 of 4
Note that the pendulum’s string is stopped by a peg when the bob swings to the left, but moves freely when the bob swings to the right.it is clear that the peg acts as the pivot point, decreasing the effective length of the string.
