Answer:
d) shortening the string
Explanation:
Time period of a pendulum clock is dependent on two factors namely:length and acceleration due to gravity.
When a clock loses time, the time period of the pendulum clock increases.
This however can be corrected by decreasing the length of the pendulum.The time period of the pendulum clock is not dependent on the mass of the bob. The time period of the pendulum clock can be corrected only by changing the length of the pendulum string.
Answer:
255 Hz
Explanation:
With 5 beats per second with the 250 Hz fork, we know the unknown fork is either 250 - 5 = 245Hz or 250 + 5 = 255 Hz
With 15 beats per second with the 270 Hz fork, we know the unknown fork is either 270 - 15 = 255Hz or 270 + 15 = 285 Hz (most people would have a hard time discerning 15 beats per second... 5 per second is hard enough)
As 255 is the common frequency, it is the one selected.
