Gdeinward · Answer

In a pendulum theres two things that come into play, mass and length of the arm.

Gdeinward · Answer

Basically, it wants to know how mass and arm length affect the period( time it takes for the pendulum to make one back and and forth mtion)

Gdeinward · Answer

so predict what you think. for example, If the pendulum mass increases, then the pendulum period will be shorter.

Razor · Answer

Hm okay

Razor · Answer

so for length, depending on whether it's shorter or longer, I assume is the pendulum length is short, it'd take less time to come back to where it started

Gdeinward · Answer

thats what I think, but re word that to make it sound more like an if, then statement.

Gdeinward · Answer

remember, its a hypthesis so theres no wrong answers.

Razor · Answer

If the pendulum length is shorter . . . then the period it takes to come to where it started it shorter. Boom
