The formula for finding the period T in seconds is T=2(pi)(radical sign)L(over)32, where L is the length of the pendulum in feet.  Find the period of a pendulum that is 8 feet long.  Write your answer in terms of pi.\"  I understand I have to substitute 8 for L, but I'm not sure where to go from there and how to make my answer in terms of pi.   </SPAN>\n" );
