Suppose that a particular pendulum is required to have a period of exactly 3.000 s -- each one-way swing takes 1.500 s.

(a) What is the length of this pendulum in Austin, Texas, where g = 9.793 m/s²?

(b) If the pendulum is moved to Paris, where g = 9.809 m/s², by how many millimeters must we lengthen the pendulum?

(c) What would be the length of such a pendulum on the Moon, where g = 1.62 m/s²?
