The time period of a pendulum’s oscillation refers to the time it takes for the pendulum to complete one full back-and-forth swing, from one extreme point to the other and back again. It is the time duration of a single oscillation.
- T is the time period of the pendulum’s oscillation (measured in seconds).
- π (pi) is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159.
- l is the length of the pendulum (measured in meters).
- g is the acceleration due to gravity (measured in m/s²).
