The length also affects the period of the pendulum. The acceleration also affects the period of the pendulum. Activity 2: Experiment 2 1 Coin 2 Coins 3 Coins Trial 1 1 0.7 0.4 Trial 2 1 0.7 0.5 Trial 3 1.1 0.8 0.4 Average Time to Complete 10 Full Swings 1 0.7 0.4 Period of pendulum 0.1 0.07 0.04 Activity 2: Experiment 1 The length affects the period. The longer the length, the longer it takes. The string was shorter than the one in Experiment 1, so the period decreased. Activity 3: analyzing t= √l(4π^2)/980. The longer the length, the longer the period. Length of Pendulum Experiment Period Theoretical Period 1 8 0.17 0.5 2 4 0.7 1.2 Activity 3: analyzing When solving the theoretical period, the length in the formula was used. This was not used in the Experimental Period, so the periods were different Thanks for watching !!!
