1 (a) (i) Length of thread

(ii) Time taken for 20 complete swings // period of swing
(iii) Mass of pendulum bob // amplitude of swing // angle of swing
(b) The length of thread affects the period of swing of a simple pendulum //
The length of thread affects the time taken to complete 20 swings
(c) When the length of thread increases, the period of oscillation increases also //
When the length of thread increases, the time taken to complete 20 swings increases also //
Higher the length of thread, longer the period of oscillation //
Higher the length of thread, longer the time taken to complete 20 swings
(d) To investigate the relationship between the length of thread with the period of oscillation of pendulum
(e) Because the time for 1 swing is too fast to be measured by human //too fast to be reacted by human.
(f) T20 / s
l / cm First reading Second reading Average T/s T 2 / s2

(ii) T 2 is directly proportional to l

(iii) Calculate the gradient, c, of the graph T 2 against l. [3 marks / markah]

 1 mark: Show the right angle triangle and label the two points
 1 mark: Show the substitution using formula
 1 mark: Answer with unit

c = 0.03977 s2 cm-1 //3.98 s2 m-1//[Accept answer range: 0.039 – 0.041 s2 cm-1 or 3.9 – 4.1 s2 m-1]

[Correct value but no unit: Can consider to give mark

Correct value but wrong unit: no mark
Wrong value but correct unit: no mark]

(iv) The gravitational acceleration, g, is given by the formula:

Pecutan graviti, g, diberi oleh formula:

g= , where c = gradient of graph

dengan keadaan c = kecerunan graf
Calculate the g. [3 marks / markah]
Hitung nilai g.

 1 mark: Show the substitution // mark is still given even the value of c is wrong
 1 mark: Correct answer // mark is still given if the value of g is based on the wrong value of c
 1 mark: Correct unit ms-2 [accept: cms-2]

g = 9.92 ms-2 or 992.67 cms-2 or [Range: 9.63 to 10.12 ms-2]

(v) -Air flow during the experiment (under ceiling fan) which prolong the time of swing
-The angle of swing is not small or less than 10
(Change in the direction of swing causes the time of swings become bigger)
-There is a friction between the pendulum with surrounding air which causes a deviation
between the actual with measured value
-Reaction time to start and to stop the counting
(g) -Avoid parallax error during the scale reading by placing the eye perpendicular to the scale of metre
