When a pendulum with a period of 2.00000 s in one location (g = 9.80 m/s2) is moved to a new location from one where the period is now 1.99863 s. what is the change in acceleration (in m/s2) due to gravity at its new location?

The period of a pendulum is given by:

where L is the pendulum length and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Initially, the period of the pendulum is T=2.00 s while the gravitational acceleration is . If we re-arrange the previous equation, we can find the pendulum length:


Then the same pendulum is moved to another location, and its new period is
. Again, by re-arranging the same equation, we can find the value of g (gravitational acceleration) at the new location:

By dividing you can find the answer

Iread this book last year so take this with a grain of salt.gene jumps from the tree to compete with finny due to the fact that gene is always trying to do better than finny. he is put under the grasp of peer pressure due to finny almost forcing him to do this. ever since he first jumped finny kept pressuring him to jump since he thought gene enjoyed jumping.rather than uses this answer you should probably just reread chapters 3-4
