Question:

A pendulum clock has a heavy bob supported on a very thin steel rod that is 1.00000 m long at 20°C. 

a. To 6 significant figures, what is the clock's period? Assume that g is 9.80 m/s2 exactly. 

b. To 6 significant figures, what is the period if the temperature increases by 10°C? 

c. The clock keeps perfect time at 20°C. At 30°C, after how many hours will the clock be off by 1.0 s?
