setting the pendulum in motion should not be timed. Also timing and counting of number of swings should be started when the pendulum weight is at one of its extreme points. The period is the number of oscillations (or swings). To reduce error you can measure 10 swings instead of one and then divide the time taken by 10. As this immensely reduces the error of reaction time!! The period of the pendulum is the time taken for the pendulum to make one complete to and fro motion called oscillation

Growth rates and how to calculate them. Growth rates can be tricky to calculate and interpret and many people get confused. So here’s how to get ahead of everyone. Let’s start with a time series where we know the answer. In the example below‚ X starts at 100‚ grows 3%‚ then falls back again‚ then grows 3% again. So over the three years‚ it has grown from 100 to 103. 1 Year 2000 2001 2002 2003 Average CAGR 2 3 4 X Growth X DlnX 100 103 0.03 0.0295588 100 -0.0291262 -0.0295588 103 0.03 0.0295588
