1) T = 2*pi*Sqrt[l/g] T -& the time period of the pendulum g - acceleration due to gravity l - the length of the pendulum T1 = 2*pi*Sqrt[l/g] - on the Earth T2 = 2*pi*Sqrt[l/(g/6)] - on the Moon Therefore T2 = T1 * Sqrt[6] Answer: d) none of these 2) F = m*a F - force m - mass a - acceleration a = F/m = 1H/500g = 1H /0.5 kg = 2 m/s^2
