Calculating the period of a pendulum
Thanks tiny-tim, you're a lifesaver. As you said, the ω is not the same ω in the θ = θ0sinωt formula.- dummybbmm

Calculating the period of a pendulum
Let the moment of inertia of a pendulum be I and the distance from pivot to the center of gravity of the pendulum, D. Use the conversation of energy principle to show that the period of this pendulum is 2 * pi * sqrt(I / [M*g*D]). My attempt is as follows, I, displace the pendulum by small...- dummybbmm
