Example: A person swings on a swing. When the person sits still, the
swing moves back and forth at its natural frequency. If, instead, the
person stands on the swing, the new natural frequency of the swing is:
A. Greater B. The same C. Smaller
L
g If the person stands, L becomes smaller.
Example: Grandpa decides to move to the Moon, and he naturally takes his old pendulum clock with him. But gravity on the Moon is approximately g/6... As a result, his clock is:
A. Too fast B. Too slowC. Too fast until Noon, too slow after noon
The period of the pendulum is longer on the Moon. So each “second according to this clock” is then longer than a real second.

Example: A rod of length 6L long has a disk with r = L attached to it. The disk can be positioned along the rod’s length. Both the rod and the disk have mass m. The distance between the center of the disk and the pivot point is 3L in case A and 5L in case B. Find the ratio ωA/ωB.

Lowering the disk increases the period (ie, slows the pendulum down).
This is how you tune a grandfather clock.
