For a certain pendulum, periods of T = .15, .2108519, .257327 and .2963901 seconds are observed for respective lengths L = 10, 20, 30 and 40 units.

• Determine whether the transformation T -> T² or T -> T³ linearizes the function better.
• Determine the equation of the resulting straight line, and solve the equation for T.

• Use your equation to determine the period of a pendulum whose length is 73.59077 units.
• Use your equation to determine the length of a pendulum whose period is .8226002 seconds.
