1) Looking back at our pendulum lab, how does the starting height of the swing affect the number of swings of a pendulum?
2) How does the length of the string affect the number of swings of a pendulum?
1) As you increase the height, the distance also increases, so even though the pendulum has more speed, it still has to travel a greater distance which will always keep the same number of swings no matter what height you drop it from.
2) The shorter the string, the more swings it will make since it will have less distance to cover.
