Review. A dock with a brass pendulum has a period of 1.000 s at 20.0C. If the temperature increases to 30.0C, (a) by how much does the period change and (b) how much time does the clock gain or lose in one week?
The original “clock” used to define the length of the second was the daily rotation of Earth about its axis. Why has this clock been replaced by one based on the oscillation period of light waves emitted by atoms like cesium and rubidium?
A simple pendulum has mass 1.20 kg and length 0.700 m. (a) What is the period of the pendulum near the surface of Earth? (b) If the same mass is attached to a spring, what spring constant would result in the period of motion found in part (a)?
You are working in an observatory, taking data on electromagnetic radiation from neutron stars. You happen to be analyzing results from the neutron star in Example 11.6, verifying that the period of the 10.0-km-radius neutron star is indeed 2.6 s. You go through weeks of data showing the same period. Suddenly, as you analyze the most recent data, you notice that the period has decreased to 2.3 s and remained at that level since that time. You ask your supervisor about this, who becomes excited and says that the neutron star must have undergone a glitch, which is a sudden shrinking of the radius of the star, resulting in a higher angular speed. As she runs to her computer to start writing a paper on the glitch, she calls back to you to calculate the new radius of the planet, assuming it has remained spherical. She is also talking about vortices and a superfluid core, but you dont understand those words.

A 100 kg bob is attached to a 1 m long string. The pendulum has a period of 2 s. If this pendulum is beamed up to a planet that the gravity is 4 times less than that on earth (9.8/4 = 2.45 m/s2). What will the period be?
The spaceship Intergalactica lands on the surface of the uninhabited Pink Planet, which orbits a rather average star in the distant Garbanzo Galaxy. A scouting party sets out to explore. The party's leader–a physicist, naturally–immediately makes a determination of the acceleration due to gravity on the Pink Planet's surface by means of a simple pendulum of length 1.18 m. She sets the pendulum swinging, and her collaborators carefully count 103 complete cycles of oscillation during 217 s. What is the result?
A uniform distribution of dust in the solar system adds to the gravitational attraction of the Sun on a planet an additional forceF = −m C rwhere m is the mass of the planet, C is a constant proportional to the gravitational constant and the density of the dust, and r is the radius vector from the Sun to the planet (both considered as points). This additional force is very small compared to the direct Sun-planet gravitational force. Calculate the period of radial oscillations for slight disturbances fromthis circular orbit.
