Question

Why is the principal of periodic motion used in pendulum and quartz clocks?

Answer 1

Answer:

A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. When a pendulum is displaced sideways from its resting equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force; after it reaches its highest point in its swing, gravity will accelerate it back toward the equilibrium position.
