To solve the problem step by step, we will first find the time period of the pendulum and then use that to calculate its length. ### Step 1: Calculate the Time Period The time period (T) is defined as the time taken for one complete oscillation. We know that the pendulum completes 2 oscillations in 5 seconds. To find the time period, we can use the formula: \[ T = \frac{\text{Total Time}}{\text{Number of Oscillations}} \] ...
