Question

A 24 kg child is on a swing that hangs from 3.5 m long chains. She swings out to a maximum angle of 45 degrees. The angle is measured from the vertical. What is the question?

Answer 1

The period of a 1.00-m-long pendulum is approximately 2.01 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the period of a pendulum, we can use the formula:
T = 2π√(L/g)
where T is the period, L is the length of the pendulum, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Substituting the given values into the formula, we have:
T = 2π√(1.00/9.8)
T ≈ 2π x 0.320
T ≈ 2.01 seconds
