Question 149821: The period T(time in seconds for one complete cycle) of a simple pendulum is realated to length L (in feet)of the pendulum for the formula 8T^2 = PIE^2L. If a child is on a swing with a 10- foot chain, then how long does it take to complete on cycle of the swing?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The period T(time in seconds for one complete cycle) of a simple pendulum is related to length L (in feet) of the pendulum for the formula 8T^2 = PIE^2L.
-------------------------
If a child is on a swing with a 10-foot chain, then how long does it take to complete on cycle of the swing?
--------------------------
8T^2 = (pi)^(2*10)
8T^2 = 62.83...
T = sqrt[62.83/8] = 2.8 seconds
