QUESTIONS 1. Make a pendulum by tying a 100 cm string to a mass. Hold the string in your hand and let the mass swing. • Observing only with your eyes, does the period depend on the length of the string? Does the period depend on the amplitude of the swing? ● • Estimate the period when you hold the mass about 10° from vertical. Note: For a pendulum that is 100 cm long, this corresponds to pulling the bob only about 15 cm to the side. 2. Try a different mass on your string. Does the period seem to depend on the mass?
