If the clock runs slow and loses 23 s per day, how should you adjust the length of the pendulum? Note: due to the precise nature of this problem you must treat the constant g as unknown (that is, do not assume it is equal to exactly 9.80 m/s2). Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter positive value in case of increasing length of the pendulum and negative value in case of decreasing length of the pendulum.arrow_forwardThe spaceship Intergalactica lands on the surface of the uninhabited Pink Planet, which orbits a rather average star in the distan Garbanzo Galaxy.
