To find the period of pendulum.

Answer to Problem 60CR
The period of the pendulum is 3.14 seconds .
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The period P of a pendulum is given by the formula:
P=6.28√l32 , where l is the length of the pendulum.
The length of the clock’s pendulum is 8 feet long.
Formula used:
The following formula is used;
P=6.28√l32
Calculation:
The period of the pendulum is calculated by:
P=6.28√l32P=6.28√832 [substitute the value of l]P=6.28√14P=6.28×12P=3.14 seconds
Hence, the period of the pendulum is 3.14 seconds .
