Simple Pendulum questions

7. How would the period of a simple pendulum be affected if it were located on the moon instead of the earth?

8. What effect would the temperature have on the time kept by a pendulum clock if the pendulum rod increases in length with an increase in temperature?

9. What kind of graph would result if the period T were graphed as a function of the square root of the length?

10. What effect does the mass of the ball have on the period of a simple pendulum? What would be the effect of replacing the steel ball with a wooden ball, a lead ball, and a ping pong ball of the same size?

11. the acceleration of gravity on Jupiter is 2.53 times that of gravity on the Earth. Would the period of a 1.0 m long pendulum be longer or shorter on Jupiter than on Earth?

Explanation / Answer

T=2*pi*(l/g)^(1/2)

7) period of  simple pendulum will increase on the moon,because g will decrease.

8)  period of  simple pendulum will increase , because length increases on temperature.

9) line passing through origin.

10) mass does not effect on period of simple pendulum, hence period will be same in all cases.

11) Period would be shorter.
