What is the period of a pendulum near Earth’s surface that is 130 cm long?
Question 1 options:

2.3 s

0.83 s

9.1 s

22.9 s

Respuesta :

Answer:

A). 2.3 s

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the string = 130cm or 1.3 m

g near Earth's surface = 9.8 [tex]ms^{-2}[/tex]

To determine the period of a pendulum near Earth’s surface;

T = 2 π [tex]\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }[/tex]

T = 2π[tex]\sqrt{\frac{1.3}{9.8} }[/tex]

T = 2.3 sec

Therefore, the period of the pendulum near the earth's surface is 2.3 sec.
