Answer:

Length of the pendulum will be 3.987 m

Explanation:

We have given time period of the pendulum T = 8 sec

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.81m/sec^2

We have to find the length of the simple pendulum

We know that time period of the simple pendulum is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

8=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{l}{9.81}}

l=3.987m

So length of the pendulum will be 3.987 m

Help fast please!!!!!

We're told that the planets have EQUAL MASS.

If that's true, then the strength of the gravitational forces between
each planet and the star depends only on the distance between
them ... the farther a planet is from the star, the smaller the
gravitational forces are IF we're talking about planets with
equal masses.

Planet-X is closer to the star, and Planet-Y is farther from it. 
From this we know that the gravitational forces between the
star and Planet-X are greater, and the forces between the star
and Planet-Y are smaller.

'A' says this.

'B' is totally absurd, because it talks about gravity repelling things.

'C' says exactly the opposite for the two planets.

'D' says that distance doesn't matter.  We know this is absurd,
simply because we're never pulled toward Jupiter in our daily life.
