An astronaut brings a pendulum with them to the Moon, where gravity is approximately 1/6th as strong as on Earth. If the pendulum's period is 6 seconds on the Earth, the period on the Moon will be: a) 36s b) 14.4s c) 6s d) 2.4s
We know
Time period
Length of the pendulum
Acceleration due to gravity
Here is constant hence
Hence b) is the right answer
