उत्तर
As the temperature is increased, the time period of a pendulum increases as its effective length increases even though its centre of mass still remains at the centre of the bob.
Explanation:
A pendulum clock keeps proper time at temperature θ0. If the temperature is increased to θ (> θ0), then due to linear expansion, the length of pendulum increases and hence its time period will increase
Let T = `2πsqrt(L_0/g)` at temperature θ0
And T' = `2πsqrt(L/g)` at temperature θ.
`T^'/T = sqrt(L^'/L)`
= `sqrt((L[1 + αΔθ])/L`
= `1 + 1/2 αΔθ`
Therefore change (loss or gain) in time per unit time lapsed is `(T^' - T)/T = 1/2 αΔθ`
Fractional change in time period `(ΔT)/T = 1/2 αΔθ`
So, as the temperature increases, the length of pendulum increases and hence time period of the pendulum increases. Due to an increment in its time period, a pendulum clock becomes slow in summer and will lose time.
