Question

Answer T/F with short explanation to the answer provided. Please???
A simple pendulum suspended in a rocket ship has a period T0. Assume that the rocket ship is near the earth in a uniform gravitational field.

If the ship moves upward with a constant velocity, the period decreases.
If the ship accelerates downward at 9.81 m/s2, the pendulum will no longer oscillate.
If the ship accelerates upward, the period increases.
If the mass of the pendulum is halved, the period decreases.
If the length of the pendulum is doubled, the new period will be the square root of two times T0.

Explanation / Answer

False: If the ship moves upward with a constant velocity, the period decreases. True: If the ship accelerates downward at 9.81 m/s2, the pendulum will no longer oscillate. False: If the ship accelerates upward, the period increases. False: If the mass of the pendulum is halved, the period decreases. True: If the length of the pendulum is doubled, the new period will be the square root of two times T0.
