You are at a furniture store and notice that a Grandfather clock has its time regulated by a physical pendulum that consists of a rod with a movable weight on it. When the weight is moved downward, the pendulum slows down; when it is moved upward, the pendulum swings faster. If the rod has a mass of 1.23 kg and a length of 1.25 m and the weight has a mass of [10] kg, where should the mass be placed to give the pendulum a period of 2.00 seconds

Answer:

The distance is 1.026 m.

Explanation:

mass of rod, M = 1.23 kg

Length, L = 1.25 m

mass, m = 10 kg

Time period, T = 2 s

Let the distance is d.

The formula of the time period is given by

[tex]T = 2\pi\sqrt\frac{\frac{1}{3}ML^2+md^2}{(M +m)g}\\\\2\times 2 = 4\pi^2\times \frac{\frac{1}{3}\times1.23\times1.25\times 1.25+ 10d^2}{(1.23 + 10)\times9.8}\\\\11.16 = 0.64 + 10d^2\\\\d= 1.026 m[/tex]
