Question

In the experiment conducted on Earth a pendulum is found to have period equal to 1 s, and a spring-box oscillator (oscillating on a level frictionless surface) is found to have the same period of 1 s. Both objects are taken to Mars. The experiment is repeated on the surface of Mars. It is found that the pendulum has period Tr, and that the spring-box oscillator has period TSB. Gravitational acceleration on Mars is gM = 3.7 m/s Which one of the following statements is true? (A) Tp < 1s and TSB = 1s (D) Tp > 1s and Tse>1s (E) TP = 1s and TSB < 1s (F) TP > 1s and TSB = 1s (B) TP = 1s and TSB = 1s (C) TP = 1s and Tse2 1s (N) None of the above.
