Question

In the example of resonance in pendulum, does mass of the pendulum produce any variations in the experiment.
Suppose if the two bobs of equal length have different mass ? Does it affect its oscillations?

Solution

No the mass of pendulum does not affect the oscillations as the expression for time period of an oscillation depends only upon the length of the pendulum and the value of acceleration due to gravity.
