Pendulum Frequency Calculator

Find the oscillation frequency of a simple pendulum.

Frequency (Hz) 0.705

Formula: f = 1 ÷ (2π·√(L/g))

Step-by-step with your numbers:

1. Values used:

2. Length = 0.5

3. Gravity = 9.81 m/s²

5. Frequency = 0.705Hz

The frequency is how many full swings a pendulum makes per second.

The math behind it

f = 1/T, where T = 2π√(L/g). Shorter pendulums swing faster.

0.5 m pendulum → about 0.70 Hz.

How do I get more swings per second?

Use a shorter pendulum.
