The highest point<span> of the </span>pendulums<span> swing is when the potential energy is at its </span>highest<span> and the </span>kinetic energy<span> is at its lowest.</span>
Then the force of gravity between them would be quadrupled and so on but the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects which makes more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces
Answer:
a) T ’= 0.999 s
, b) t = 3596.4 s
Explanation:
The angular velocity of a simple pendulum is
w = √g / L
The angular velocity, frequency and period are related
w = 2π f = 2π / T
2π / T = √ g / L
T = 2π √ L / g
L = T² g / 4π²
L = 1² 9.8 / 4π²
L = 0.248 m
To know the effect of the temperature change let's use the thermal expansion ratios
ΔL = α L ΔT
ΔL = 24 10⁻⁶ 0.248 (-4 - 20)
ΔL = 142.8 10⁻⁶ m
Lf - L = -142. 8 10⁻⁶
Lf = 142.8 10⁻⁶ + 0.248
Lf = 0.2479 m
Let's calculate new period
T ’= 2π √ L / g
T ’= 2π √ (0.2479 / 9.8)
T ’= 0.999 s
We can see that the value of the period is reduced so that the clock is delayed
b) change of time in 1 hour
When the clock is at 20 ° C in one hour it performs 3600 oscillations, for the new period the time of this number of oscillations is
t = 3600 0.999
t = 3596.4 s
Therefore the clock is delayed almost 4 s
