a simple pendulum is mounted inside a space craft . What should be its time period of vibration?

low battery! please answer ASAP


UnknownDude: Is the space shuttle actually in space, or is it launching?
Crementor: in space
UnknownDude: The time period will be infinite
UnknownDude: The pendulum will never complete an oscillation
Crementor: then please explain how?
UnknownDude: Time period is inversely proportional to g
UnknownDude: In space, g=0
Crementor: okay
UnknownDude: Thus, time period becomes infinite
Crementor: thanks

as the space craft is in space and there is no acting acceleration due to gravity hence it's time period will be infinite.
by equation
T=2π√l/√g

Answer:

Period time of simple pendullum is given by, T=2 pi root(L/g)

But, inside spacecraft, acceleration due to gravity is zero.

                             Therefore, T=2 pi root(L/0)

                             Therefore, T = INFINITY

Hence, Time period of simple pendullum inside a spacecraft is INFINITY..
