The acceleration due to gravity (g) on this planet is 39.44 m/s²
<h3>What is solar system?</h3>
Solar system consists of all the planets and the most importantly the center of the solar system is Sun.
Given is an unknown planet in the outer-reaches of the solar system, a pendulum with a 12 g bob and a string length of 4 m oscillates with a period of 2 seconds.
The time period of the pendulum is
T = 2π √l/g
Squaring both sides, we get
l/g = T² / 4π²
g = 4π²l/ T²
Substitute Time period T = 2s and length l = 4m, we get
g = 4π²x 4/ 2²
g =39.44 m/s²
Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on this planet is 39.44 m/s²
