Question 1009442: Physics: Pendulum. The period left-parenthesis Upper T right-parenthesis of a pendulum is related to the length left-parenthesis Upper L right-parenthesis of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity left-parenthesis g right-parenthesis by the formula Upper T equals 2 pi StartRoot StartFraction Upper L Over g EndFraction EndRoot. If gravity is 32 ft/s2 and the period is 2 seconds, find the approximate length of the pendulum. (Note: 12 in equals 1 ft)
Round your answer to the nearest integer.
