Problem
Two separate simple pendulums are swinging back and forth. It is found that pendulum A has twice the frequency of pendulum B. Which statement could account for this difference?
A) Pendulum B is twice as long as pendulum A.
B) Pendulum B was released before pendulum A.
C) Pendulum B is twice as massive as pendulum A.
D) The length of pendulum B is four times the length of pendulum A.
E) The mass of pendulum B is four times the mass of pendulum A.
