Suppose the Period T of a Pendulum of Length L

question 113

Multiple Choice

Suppose the period T of a pendulum of length L is where g is the acceleration due to gravity. A pendulum is moved from the Canal Zone, where feet per second per second, to Greenland, where feet per second per second. Because of the change in temperature, the length of the pendulum changes from 2.5 feet to 2.43 feet. Approximate the change in the period of the pendulum. Round your answer to four decimal places. ​

• A) 4.9300 seconds
• B) -0.0350 second
• C) 0.9650 second
• D) 7.9650 seconds
• E) -1.0700 seconds
