Question: In pendulum experiment, we assume sin() approximately equal to and derive T=2pi sqr(l/g) however if is bigger than 10 degree the period will change signifiantly
In pendulum experiment, we assume sin() approximately equal to and derive T=2pi sqr(l/g)

| Angle (degrees) | dT (s) |
| 5 | 1.288 |
| 10 | 1.279 |
| 15 | 1.283 |
| 20 | 1.284 |
| 25 | 1.289 |
| 30 | 1.296 |
| 35 | 1.305 |
| 40 | 1.311 |
| 45 | 1.327 |
| 50 | 1.33 |
| 55 | 1.337 |
| 60 | 1.35 |
Graph the variation of the period T with the angle to comment on the features of the graph when the small angle approximation ie. sin =
is no longer true.
