Two physical pendulums (not simple pendulums) are made from meter sticks that are suspended from the ceiling at one end. the sticks are uniform and are identical in all respects, except that one is made of wood (mass=0.24 kg) and the other of metal (mass=0.76 kg) they are set into oscillation and execute simple harmonic motion. determine the period of (a) the wood pendulum and (b) the metal pendulum

For calculate the time period we should be given length of bothe pendulums. But Here they have not given it. There is an error of the qutetion

Explanation

Time period of the simple pendulum can be denoted as T = 2*pi root (l/g) l is the length of the pendulum and g is the gravitational acceleration.

But we can suggest which pendulum has a higher time period considering theri inertia.

does anyone know or what?

this could be newton#'s law of cooling. the cooling curve is exponential
