- When the length L of aclock pendulum is held constant by controlling its temperature,the pendulum’s period T depends on the acceleration of gravity g.The period will therefore vary slightly as the clock is moved fromplace to place on Earth’s surface, depending on the change in g.By keeping track of DELTA T, we can estimate the variation in g fromthe equation T = 2π(L/g)1/2 that relates T, g, and L. A clock with a 100-cm pendulum is moved from a location where g = 980 cm/sec2 to a new location. This increases the period by dT = 0.001 sec. Find dg and estimate the value of g at the new location.arrow_forwardThe bulk modulus of water is B= 2.2 x 10' N/m².
