Question

A seconds’ pendulum is taken to a place where acceleration due to gravity falls to half of its value on earth. What will be its new time period?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Time period of 'a' is inversely proportional to the square root of acceleration due to gravity. Now, if the acceleration due to gravity falls to one-fourth, the time period will be doubled

Answer 2

Explanation:

Time period of 'a' is inversely proportional to the square root of acceleration due to gravity. Now, if the acceleration due to gravity falls to one-fourth, the time period will be doubled.
