It is easily derived that its motion can be viewed as the concatenation of two pendular movements with different lengths, contributing each one to half of the period of the complete oscillation. An analytical formulation is derived and corroborated with an experiment showing high agreement. This experiment could be interesting as a proposed exercise for the students or as a laboratory practical work. Besides, the gravity acceleration can be determined from each singular experiment and averaged to obtain it with lesser experimental error. In addition, it can be used to evaluate energy conservation theorem and small angle approximation (Law of isochronism) for the pendular oscillation. The level of the manuscript makes it appropriate for undergraduate students and introductory physics courses. 000129873 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA-FEDER/E44-20R 000129873 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby-nc-nd$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 000129873 592__ $$a0.389$$b2023 000129873 593__ $$aPhysics and Astronomy (miscellaneous)$$c2023$$dQ2 000129873 593__ $$aEducation$$c2023$$dQ2 000129873 594__ $$a1.5$$b2023 000129873 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObject$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion 000129873 7102_ $$12002$$2385$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
