I will be investigating the Period of oscillation of a Simple Pendulum.
A simple pendulum can be made by suspending a mass from a string so
that it is free to swing. If it is displaced from its central equilibrium
position, by pulling it from side to side, and then released; it will swing
backwards and forwards in a regular repetitive movement called an
oscillation (one complete swing).
I will investigate the effect of different variables (input variables) on the
period of oscillation (output variable).
