Lesson: The Period of a Pendulum Physics

In this lesson, we will learn how to calculate the period and frequency of a pendulum given its length and the local acceleration due to gravity.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

use to find the period of a pendulum,
use to find the frequency of a pendulum,
realize that the period of a pendulum is only dependent on its length and the local acceleration due to gravity,
realize that the period of a pendulum is independent of the mass of the pendulum.
