Answer:

2.459 seconds or approximately 2.46 s

Step-by-step explanation:

We know, Time period = 2*π*√(l/g), where:

  • l = effective length of pendulum
  • g = acceleration due to gravity at that place

We are given the value of 'l' or effective length as 1.5 m

Let us assume the value of g as 9.8 m/s²

Putting the values,

  • T = 2*(22/7)*√((1.5)/(9.8))
  • T = 44/7*0.391
  • T = 2.459 or approximately, 2.46 seconds

Hence to complete 1 oscillation, time required= 2.46 s approx.
