Answer #1

In the pendulum experiment, the time is found by using a stop watch. The pendulum is released at a particular angle and at the same time of the releasing,a stopwatch is started and at the moment when the bob of the pendulum completes exactly 10 oscillations ( to and fro motion) the stop watch is stopped and the time is noted.

Time period of a pendulum is the time taken by it for one complete cycle. Since we have calculated the time for 10 oscillations, the perod is calculated by dividing the time by 10, which in turn gives out there time taken for a single oscillation ie, the period of the pendulum.
