Copy the problem below into a text editor or word processor.

• This form accepts only text so a text editor such as Notepad is fine.

• You might prefer for your own reasons to use a word processor (for example the formatting features might help you organize your answer and explanations), but note that formatting will be lost when you submit your work through the form.

• If you use a word processor avoid using special characters or symbols, which would require more of your time to create and will not be represented correctly by the form.

• As you will see within the first few assignments, there is an easily-learned keyboard-based shorthand that doesn't look quite as pretty as word-processor symbols, but which gets the job done much more efficiently.

You should enter your answers using the text editor or word processor. You will then copy-and-paste it into the box below, and submit.

A pendulum requires 2 seconds to complete a cycle, which consists of a complete back-and-forth oscillation (extreme point to equilibrium to opposite extreme point back to equilibrium and finally to the original extreme point). As long as the amplitude of the motion (the amplitude is the distance from the equilibrium position to the extreme point) is small compared to the length of the pendulum, the time required for a cycle is independent of the amplitude.

• How long does it take to get from one extreme point to the other, how long from an extreme point to equilibrium, and how long to go from extreme point to equilibrium to opposite extreme point and back to equilibrium?

1 second from one extreme point to the other.

0.5 seconds from extreme point to equilibrium

1.5 seconds to go from extreme, to equilibrium, to opposite extreme, back to equi.

• What reasonable assumption did you make to arrive at your answers?

I saw there being four “intervals” in a pendulums cycle, so 2 / 4 = 0.5s for each interval.
