Answer the following questions:
(a) The motion of a simple pendulum is approximately simple harmonic for small angle oscillation. For larger angles of oscilliation, a more involved analysis shows that `T` is greater than `2pisqrt((t)/(g))` Think of a qualitative argument to appreciate this result.
(b) What is the frequency of oscillation of a simple pendulum mounted in a cabin that is freely falling under gravity ?
