Ohh ok, thank you for your help.

So if the period does not exist at 90degrees, does that mean that the pendulum takes an infinite or unknown amount of time to complete one cycle?

As theta approaches 90, the limit approaches infinity.

As period approaches 90 degrees, the period increases. It goes past approximately 25.27s when I used theta=89.9degrees.

The period depends on the length, and acceleration (including the angle). I'm not sure if that's what you mean?

Homework Statement What would the period be if the pendulum had been inclined to 90 degrees? What value of g does this correspond to? theta=90degrees. Just as a side note, theta=0degrees when the arm is facing vertically downwards towards the ground. g=9.8m/s^2 Effective length=0.275m. The...
