calculate_pendulum_period
Compute the period of a simple pendulum for physics homework or clock design. Input pendulum length in meters and optional gravity (default 9.81 m/s²) to get the period in seconds.
Instructions
Compute simple pendulum period T=2π√(L/g). Use for physics homework or clock design. Inputs: length m, gravity m/s² (default 9.81). Returns period in seconds. See list_bundles for related 'science' calculators.
