How much time does the bob of a seconds' pendulum take to move from one extreme of its oscillation to the other extreme ?

Solution

Time period of second pendulum, T = 2s

So time taken to move from one extreme to the other extreme of its oscillation = T/2 = 1s

Time period of second pendulum, T = 2s So time taken to move from one extreme to the other extreme of its oscillation = T/2 = 1s

Time period of second pendulum, T = 2s

So time taken to move from one extreme to the other extreme of its oscillation = T/2 = 1s
