Consider a simple pendulum of length L with a mass m.
Derive the angular frequency of oscillation for the pendulum when it is displaced by a small angle. Assume it is in a gravitational field with the magnitude of acceleration due to gravity equal to g. (That is, you need to find MOI and d for a simple pendulum and then use the equation for ω for a simple pendulum.)
Consider the simple pendulum: a ball hanging at the end of a string. Derive the expression for the period of this physical pendulum, taking into account the finite size
ball (i.e. the ball is not a point mass). Assume that the string is massless. Start with the expression for the period T'of a physical pendulum with small amplitude oscillati

The moment of inertia of the ball about an axis through the center of the ball is
Here, I, is the moment of inertia about an axis through the pivot (fixed point at the top of the string, m is the mass of the ball, g is the Earth's gravitational constant of
acceleration, and h is the distance from the pivot at the top of the string to the center of mass of the ball.

- Consider a mass m at the end of an ideal spring with spring constant k (so the spring force is Fspring = -kx). In introductory physics you found that the mass underwent oscillatory motion with angular frequency wo = accurate by adding in the effects of damping, a type of friction force (it removes mechanical energy from the system). The damping force is proportional to the velocity, Fdamping = -2myv, where y 2 O is the damping coefficient. Therefore, Vk/m > 0.
