The time period of a simple pendulum is the time taken by it to travel from
i) A to B and back to A.
ii) O to A, A to B and B to A.
iii) B to A, A to B and B to O.
iv) A to B.

2. In a pendulum , when the bob moves from one position and comes back to the same
position , it is said to complete one
i) revolution
ii) rotation
iii) frequency
iv) oscillation

3. “The time period of a given pendulum is not constant”. Is this statement true or false?

4. Define the following terms.

i) Time period ii) Periodic motion

5. A simple pendulum takes 50 s to complete 20 oscillations. What is the time period of

the pendulum? (Assignment booklet Pg-9)
6. The time period of a pendulum varies with its length. If the length is increased, how
does the time period change?

Note: Worksheet needs to be done in the Physics notebook.
