Question

Explain what happens to the volume of liquid displaced when the density of liquid is changed. Does changing the period of the pendulum by:

(a) the length of the pendulum affect?
(b) mass of the bob affect?
(c) the angle of displacement affect?
Did Hook's law vary when large masses hung in the spring? Why?
A. Yes, due to increased tension.
B. No, Hook's law remains constant.

Answer 1

The mass of the bob does not affect the movement of a simple pendulum. The motion of the pendula is determined by the period and the acceleration due to gravity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The movement of the pendula will not differ at all because the mass of the bob has no effect on the motion of a simple pendulum. The pendula are only affected by the period (which is related to the pendulum's length) and by the acceleration due to gravity.
