A mass m0is attached to a spring and hung vertically. The mass is raised a short distance in the vertical direction and released. The mass oscillates with a frequency f0. If the mass is replaced with a mass nine times as large, and the experiment was repeated, what would be the frequency of the oscillations in terms of f0?
The period T of a simple pendulum is the amount of timerequired for it to undergo one complete oscillation. If the lengthof the pendulum is L and the acceleration of gravity is g, then T isgiven by T = 2pLpgq. Find the powers p and q required for dimensional consistency.
The period of a simples pendulum, defined as the time necessary for one complete oscillation l, is measured in the time units and is giving by where L is the length of the pendulum and g is the acceleration due to gravity, in units of length divided by time squared. Show that this equation is dimensionally consistent.
The length of a clock's pendulum can be adjusted so that it keeps time accurately. With what precision must the length be known for such a clock to have an accuracy of 3.00 seconds in a year (365.25 days), all other variables being neglected? (If, for example, the length must be known to within 3 parts in 1,000,000, give your answer as or 3.00e-6.)

Solve the following problem by writing complete solutions with corresponding units and by using the constant value.
We might assume that the period of a simple pendulum depends on the mass M, the length l of the string and g the acceleration due to gravity, i.e T is directly proportional to m l g. Consider the dimensions of the quantities involved to deduce the values of alpha, beta, gamma hence show that T is directly proportional to √l/g
