Two simple pendulum of unequal lengths while oscillating meet each other at mean position. What is their phase difference ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If both the pendulums are moving in the same direction, then the phase difference between them is zero, i.e. `phi = 0^(@)`
But if they are moving in opposite directions, they `phi = 180^(@)`.
