In this video you will learn how to solve question 1 of the January 2023 physics exam
This questions deals with the simple pendulum which is a mechanical device made from light inextensible string with a point mass attached to one end with the other end suspended from a fixed point. A pendulum is used in antique clock and is the main driving force for the famous clock in London, the 'Big Ben'.
You will learn how to find the period of a simple pendulum and be able to relate its period to its lenght. The equation which governs the period of a simple pendulum is given as
T^2 = (4 * pi^2 * l)/g

Physics is a science that deals with matter and energy and their interactions. It is concerned with systems, laws, models, principles and theories that explain the physical behaviour of our world and the universe. Physics is regarded as a fundamental scientific discipline since all advances in technology can be traced either directly or indirectly to the physical laws and theories.
The CSEC Physics Syllabus is redesigned with a greater emphasis on the application of scientific concepts and principles. Such an approach is adopted in order to develop those long-term transferrable skills of ethical conduct, teamwork, problem solving, critical thinking, innovation and communication. In addition, it encourages the use of various teaching and learning strategies to inculcate these skills while, at the same time catering to multiple intelligences and different learning styles and needs. The syllabus will assist students to develop positive values and attitudes towards the physical components of the environment and will also provide a sound foundation for those who wish to pursue further studies in science.
