Problem

A simple pendulum consists of a mass M attached to a string of length L of negligible mass. For this system, when undergoing small oscillations (A) the frequency is proportional to the amplitude. (B) the period is proportional to the amplitude. (C) the frequency is independent of the mass M. (D) the frequency is independent of the length L. (E) the frequency is inversely proportional to the length L
