A grandfather clock run by a simple pendulum is running slow. In order to get the pendulum to swing faster, would you shorten or lengthen the pendulum ? Why ? a/ shorten, since this would change the effects of gravity b/ lengthen, since this would change the effects of mass c/ shorten, since this would decrease the denominator d/ lengthen, since this would increase the denominator
Suppose a grandfather clock (a simple pendulum) runs fast. In order to make it run on time you should ... A. make the pendulum longer B. adjust the amplitude of the swing larger C. adjust the amplitude of the swing smaller OD. make the pendulum shorter
A grandfather clock contains a pendulum that swings back and
forth due to gravity. Model the pendulum as a one-dimensional rod
that is connected to a solid disk. The length of the rod is
L, and the radius of the solid disk is R. The
mass of each object is .
Known: ,
L, R, g
What is the angular acceleration of the
swinging pendulum when it is at an angle
relative to the vertical, as shown? Let counterclockwise be the
positive...
Question: The period of a simple pendulum is T=2π√(L/g) with L = length of the pendulum and g = gravity of earth. a.Derive the scaling law for the pendulum. b.How much would the period of the pendulum change when you decrease the characteristic dimension by a factor of 10?

C3. (a) A pendulum is to be used for a clock (0) What length of string is required for this pendulum if it is to complete one full oscillation in 2S? (i) If the length of the pendulum was increased by 5 cm, would the clock run fast or slow? Explain your thinking [41 (b) () Explain why the amplitude of a real pendulum decreases with time. (i) To stop the amplitude decreasing the pendulum could be given a...
You are visiting your grandparents in Boston. There is an antique grandfather clock keeping time in one of the rooms. Your grandmother enters the room and tells you that she had it calibrated professionally in Denver and it kept perfect time for years. After they moved it here to their Massachusetts house, it has not been accurate. It runs too fast and has to be reset to the correct time every few days. You find some papers associated with the...

Ignoring temperature effects and air resistance, the pendulum clock, as compared to...
+3 points SerCP10 13.P.037 A pendulum clock that works perfectly on Earth is taken to the Moon. Assume that the free-fall acceleration on the Moon is 1.63 m/s (a) Does it run fast or slow there? O fast O slow Neither, it runs the same as on Earth. (b) If the clock is started at 12:00 midnight, what will it read after 15.5 h (Enter the time to the nearest minute.)

The period T of a simple pendulum with small oscillations is calculated from the formula T=2pi sqrt(L/g) where L is the length of the pendulum and g is the acceleration due to gravity. suppose that measured values of L and g have errors and are corrected with new values where L is increased from 4m to 4.5m and g is increased from 9 m/s2 to 9.8 m/s2. Use differentials to estimate the change in the period. Does the period increase...
