Simple Pendulum

A simple pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot in a way that it can swing freely. When a pendulum is displaced sideways from its resting or equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will accelerate it back toward the equilibrium position. When released the pendulum after displacing, the restoring force combined with the pendulum's mass causes it to oscillate about the equilibrium position, swinging back and forth. The time for one complete cycle, a left swing and a right swing, is called the period. The period depends on the length of the pendulum and also to a slight degree on the amplitude, the width of the pendulum's swing.
I am suggesting a video that i find very simple regarding explaining the features of a simple pendulum.

 I always intend to suggest short timed videos with simple explanations of the phenomenon. I am suggesting another video to learn some specific terminology as well as working principle of a simple pendulum.
