An experiment is performed where the length of a pendulum and
its period are measured. The length is manipulated and the period
is measured again and found to respond. The following data is
collected
c. Construct a graph ( or complete a spreadsheet)
with the period squared on the y-axis and the pendulum’s length on
the x-axis. Remember to include a title and to label the
axes.
d. Determine the slope of the straight line. Show all
your work. Answer to two significant digits.
e. Use the slope of the line to determine the
gravitational field strength (that is, acceleration due to
gravity). Hint: slope 4 /g 2 = r . Show all your work.
f. In 5e, you were given a hint. Which equation served
as a basis for that hint? Prove the hint was valid. Show all
work.
