Question

A clock has a brass pendulum with a period of 1.000 s at 18.9°C. Suppose the clock is moved to a location where the average temperature is 33.1°C. How much time will the clock lose or gain in 6 days?

Answer 1

given period , calculate L

period= 2PI * sqrt (L/g) calculate L

Now, with the change in temp, calculate the new Length (length)(1 + coeff*changeTemp)


now calculate the new period.

calculate the percent difference.

Now calculate the value of that difference over six days.
