Question

A mass hanging vertically from a spring oscillates with a period T. If this experiment were taken to the Moon, then how would the period of oscillation change? Explain.

Explanation / Answer

here,

time period for a spring , T = 2 * pi * srqt(m/k)

therefore ,

at moon , the spring constant and the mass of the mass is same

the gravity changes on moon

but their is no effect of change in gravity on the time period of spring

the period of oscillation of the spring remains constant

for a pendulam,

time period , T = 2 * pi * sqrt(L/g)

and ,gmoon = gearth/6

gmoon = g/6

therefore , Tmoon = 2 * pi * sqrt(L/(g/6))

Tmoon = 2.45 * Tearth

the period of pendulam is 2.45 * period on earth
