Respuesta :

Period is T = 1/f.  The frequency, f, is 5cycles/10s = 0.5.  So the period T=1/0.2 = 2.

The period of a pendulum that swings back and forth 5 times in 10 seconds is 5s.

HOW TO CALCULATE PERIOD:

  • The period (T) of a pendulum can be calculated using the following formula:

  • T = 1/f

Where;

  1. T = period
  2. f = frequency

  • However, the frequency of a pendulum refers to the number of cycles per seconds. Hence, the frequency (f) can be calculated thus:

  • f = 5cycles/10second

  • f = 0.2cycles/second

  • Period (T) = 1/0.2

  • Period = 5s.

  • Therefore, period of a pendulum that swings back and forth 5 times in 10 seconds is 5s.
