Physics

Two pendulums have the same dimensions (length {L}) and totalmass (m). Pendulum \texttip{A}{A} is a very small ball swinging atthe end of a uniform massless bar. In pendulum \texttip{B}{B}, halfthe mass is in the ball and half is in the uniform bar.

A)Find the period of pendulum A for small oscillations.

B)Find the period of pendulum B for small oscillations.

C)Please be sure to include the specific calculations of themoment of inertia and the distance to the center of mass forpendulum B.

D) By what fraction is the period of one pendulum smaller thanthe other?
