(choose chapter or problem)

Assume that the period T (in seconds) of a pendulum (the time required for a complete back-and-forth cycle) is T = 3 2 L, where L is the pendulums length (in meters). (a) What are the units for the rate of change of T with respect to L? Explain what this rate measures. (b) Which quantities are represented by the slopes of lines A and B in Figure 10? (c) Estimate the instantaneous rate of change of T with respect to L when L = 3 m. Period (s) Length (m) 1 3 AB 2 FIGURE 10 The period T is the time required for a pendulum to swing back and forth.
