Simple Pendulum (Period)
Description
Simple Pendulum is a mass (or bob) on the end of a weightless string, which, when initially displaced, will swing back and forth under the influence of gravity over its central (lowest) point without friction.
The period of swing of a simple gravity pendulum depends on its length and the local strength of gravity and is independent of the mass of the bob.
