Question
I happened to put everything in one picture so there’s no second attachment. Answer clearly
THIS IS A BIOLOGY ASSIGNMENT NOT Writing! you are supposed to read the biology passage about pendulum and then answer the question on the next attachment. and inside there was a kind of metal pole that hung down from somewhere near the top of the clock. You could touch the pole. It had a bras diah about the size of a small saucer attached to it at the very bottom end. Mary's parents called the pole thing a pendulum. When you pulled the pendulum to one side and let it go, it kept swinging back and forth and the dock part up top made tick-tock noises. If it went long enough, you could see tche hands on the face of the dock move. You also had to wind the clock with a kcy about once a week so tche pendulum would go on swinging and the hands woukd go on moving. The hands of course told the time the old fashioned way, not like the near digital face they had on other clocks. Mary guessed that the dock was pretty special to be working so well after 200 years of ticking and tocking, She had a digital alarm cock that hadn't lasted a year before it broke. Two weeks passed and Mary made an obecrvation. "Mom," she said, "the grandfather's clock is always running slower than the other docks in the house." "I noticed that too, Mary," replied her mother. "We have to move the hands ahead every day bur ir always runs slow. The next day we have to do it again and it never keeps good time. We looked for a button or switch to make it go faster but can't find any." "The pendulum seems to make che clock ga. Maybe it needs to swing faster," offered Mary. "But, how do we do that?" "Maybe the dish on the bottom of the pendulum is too heavy," suggested Mom. "If ir's too heavy, it could slow down the swing time." "Or the pendulum swings too far from side to side-it takes too long to make a swing, If we could make it take shorter swings, it would go faster." Mary shared her problem with her teacher, Ms. Patel, the next day. "It's a beautiful old clock," complained Mary, "but it doesn't keep good time, so in a way, it's useless." "Why don't you set the dock to go faster?" asked Ms. Patel. "How? We can't find any switches or buttons!" replied Mary. "We think the long pole that comes down from che top has something to do with how fast the dock goes but we can't soem to make the pole change speed." "That pole and the bob on the bottom is called a pendulum," Ms. Patel ex- t was tall and skinny.
