The free-fall acceleration on Mars is 3.7 m/s^2. What length of pendulum has a period of 1.0 s on Earth? What length of pendulum would have a 1.0-s period on Mars?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Free fall acceleration on mars [tex]g_{m}=3.7\ m/s^2[/tex]

Time Period of pendulum on earth [tex]T=1\ s[/tex]

Time period of Pendulum is given by

[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}[/tex]

for earth

[tex]1=2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}}[/tex]

[tex]L=\frac{9.8}{(2\pi )^2}[/tex]

[tex]L=0.498\ m[/tex]

(b)For same time period on mars length is given by

[tex]L'=\frac{g_m}{(2\pi )^2}[/tex]

[tex]L'=\frac{3.7}{39.48}[/tex]

[tex]L'=0.0936\ m[/tex]

[tex]L'=9.36\ cm[/tex]
