A simple pendulum is built at the Mayer Hall Building by attaching a 1.00-kg mass to the free end of a 9.8-meter long, thin, massless rod that is free to pivot about its other end. A PhD students releases the mass so that the simple pendulum is set into oscillatory motion with a maximum angular displacement of 3° from its equilibrium point. What is the cycle frequency, f, of the resulting oscillation?
