Question

A mass of 310 g is suspended from a weightless, inextensible string of length to
form a simple pendulum. The mass is now pulled aside so that the string makes
an angle of 7.5o
 with the vertical and then released.
The frequency of the resulting oscillation is measured and found to be 0.512 Hz.
.
Determine the following, giving your answers to an appropriate number of
significant figures.
i.) The length of the string
[25%]
ii.) The maximum speed of the mass
[25%]
iii.) The maximum acceleration of the mass
[25%]
iv.) The maximum tension in the string 
[25%]
