INTRODUCTION The simple pendulum is another mechanical system that moves in an oscillatory motion. It consists of a point mass 'm' suspended by means of light inextensible string of length L from a fixed support. The motion occurs in a vertical plane and is driven by a gravitational force. fig 1-shows the basic movement…
