Question 164000: Time to swing. The period T (time in seconds for one complete cycle) of a simple pendulum is related to the length L (in feet) of the pendulum by the formula 8T^2= (3.14)^2(L)
If a child is on a swing with a 10-foot chain, then how long does it take to complete one cycle of the swing?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 8T^2= (3.14)^2(L)
If a child is on a swing with a 10-foot chain, then how long does it take to complete one cycle of the swing?
--------------------
8T^2 = (3.14)^2 * 10
T^2 = (3.14)^2 * (5/4)
T^2 = 12.557..
T = 3.5124.. seconds
