yes I have plotted the T^2 vs l, it's just that the this question makes specific reference to the velocity and not gravity... I think it's an incorrect question. Thanks!
Hi, this is an exam question. It was at the end of a practical exam in which we evaluated an experimental value of gravity on Earth using simple pendulum motion. So we found the period of the pendulum and plotted length of string vs period squared; the gradient gave us the experimental value of...
Homework Statement
Fc = mv^2/r represents the motion of a simple pendulum. Describe how this data could be graphed so that the gradient of a straight line could be used to determine the velocity of the object.
Homework Equations
Fc = mv^2/r

I'm kinda stumped. I tried...
