At sea level, at a latitude where , a pendulum that takes 2.00 s for a complete swing back and forth has a length of 0.993 m. What is the value of g in m/s2 at a location where the length of such a pendulum is 0.970 m

a) The value of g at such location is:

b) the period of the pendulum with the length is 0.970 m is:

Explanation:

Recall the relationship between the period (T) of a pendulum and its length (L) when it swings under  an acceleration of gravity g:

a) Then, given that we know the period (2.0 seconds), and the pendulum's length (L=0.993 m), we can determine g at that location:

b) for this value of g, when the pendulum is shortened to 0.970 m, the period becomes:

hey , the answer is c
