What is the formula to calculate the time period of a pendulum's vibration?
What is the formula to calculate the time period of a pendulum's vibration?
The time period is calculated using the formula: Time period = Total time ÷ Number of oscillations.
If a pendulum oscillates 40 times in 4 seconds, what is its frequency?
If a pendulum oscillates 40 times in 4 seconds, what is its frequency?
The frequency is 10 hertz, calculated as frequency = Number of oscillations ÷ time.
How do you determine the number of oscillations per second for the mentioned pendulum?
How do you determine the number of oscillations per second for the mentioned pendulum?
You determine it by dividing the number of oscillations by the total time in seconds, which gives 10 oscillations per second.

Study Notes
Pendulum Oscillation
- A pendulum oscillates 40 times in 4 seconds
- Number of oscillations = 40
- Total time = 4 seconds
- Time period = Time ÷ Number of oscillations
- Time period = 4 seconds ÷ 40 oscillations = 0.1 second
- The time period is 0.1 second
- Frequency = Number of oscillations per second
- Frequency = Number of oscillations ÷ Time
- Frequency = 40 oscillations ÷ 4 seconds = 10 per second
- Frequency = 10 Hz (Hertz)
