QN0038550

A wall clock uses a vertical spring-mass system to measure the time. Each time the mass reaches an extreme position, the clock advances by a second. The clock gives correct time at the equator. If the clock is taken to the poles it will

  • (A)

    run slow

  • (B)

    run fast

  • (C)

    stop working

  • (D)

    give correct time

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:

If it gives correct time at equator, it will give correct time at poles also because the time period of spring-mass system is independent of .
