7.3 Simple Pendulum
A Simple Pendulum performs oscillatory motion. Its bob performs
S.H.M. under small oscillation approximation.
On the bob forces acting at any instant are tension in the string and
weight `mg'.
Resolving `mg' as shown,
[-ve sign takes care of direction of the mg sin q component with reference
to that of displacement]
