Asked by Samantha
Given a simple pendulum of length r and mass m, determine the oscillation period T if the perturbation angle θ is very small (i.e. θ < 10degrees).
How can I derive an equation for period using just that info?

The derivation of the simple pendulum formula for the period of oscillation is given in many physics textbooks, and possibly your own. Here is one derivation online:
