A pendulum with a length of precisely 1 37 m can be used to

A pendulum with a length of precisely 1 37 m can be used to measure the acceleration due to gravity g Such a device is called a gravimeter a How long do 100 oscillations take at sea level where g 9 81 m s S Suppose you take a gravimeter to a spot on Venus where the value of g is 0 9 less than the value of g at sea level on Earth How long do 100 oscillations take at this place on Venus S You have a stopwatch that can measure time differences of 0 15 s How many oscillations would you need to be able to measure the gravitational difference
