Africtionless pendulum clock on the surface of the earth has a period of 1.00 s. on a distant planet, the length of the pendulum must be shortened slightly to have a period of 1.00 s. what is true about the acceleration due to gravity on the distant planet?

The acceleration due to gravity on the other planet is less than the acceleration due to gravity on Earth

Explanation:

The time period of a pendulum is given by

where,

L = Length of the pendulum

g = Acceleration due to gravity

It can be seen that the time is proportional to the length and inversely proportional to the acceleration due to gravity. So, if L is reduced to keep the same time period then g must be also less.

Hence, the acceleration due to gravity on the other planet is less than the acceleration due to gravity on Earth.
