Acertain simple pendulum has a period on the earth of 2.00 s .
1. what is its period on the surface of mars, where the acceleration due to gravity is 3.71 m/s^2?

5.3 s

Explanation:

= Time period of simple pendulum on earth = 2.00 s

= Time period of simple pendulum on mars

= acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 ms⁻²

= acceleration due to gravity on mars = 3.71 ms⁻²

= length of the pendulum

we know that, time period of pendulum is given as

So

Time period of pendulum is inversely related to acceleration due to gravity

hence
