Homework Statement
We push a weight hanging on a long string in a horizontal direction so that the velocity at the beginning is v = 10 cm / s. What is the oscillating time of such a pendulum, if the string on which hangs deviates the most for θ = 5 º?
Homework Equations
T = 2pie[sqrt(L/g)]
The Attempt at a Solution
Calculating the length of the string:
v² = 2gL[1-cosθ] → L= v² / 2g[1-cosθ]
L= 0.3 cm
Calculating the oscillating time:
T = 2pie[sqrt(L/g)]
T= 0.35 s
Are my calculations correct?
Thank you for helping!
