             2.     (a)    An oscillating system has a period, T, which is related to the length, l, of the suspension by
                           the equation T = al , where a and n are constants. Table 2 shows the time periods obtained as
                                            n
                           the length was changed.

                           (i)    Complete Table 2 by inserting the values for lg l and lg T.
