A circus trapeze can be thought of a pendulum because it swings back and forth in the same way. The formula for the time it takes for a pendulum, or trapeze artist, to make one full swing (the period) can be calculated using the following formula:

T is time to complete one full swing (period) in seconds, L is length of the pendulum in feet, and g is the acceleration of gravity, 32 ft./s ² . Use 3.14 for ?.

Using your height in feet for L , the length of the pendulum, how long would it take to make one full swing on the pendulum? Height is 36ft

T = 2t IM
