If $R$ is the radius of the earth and the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth is $g = \pi^2 \ m/s^2$,then the length of the second's pendulum at a height $h = 2R$ from the surface of the earth will be:

  • A
    $\frac{2}{9} \ m$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{9} \ m$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{9} \ m$
  • D
    $\frac{8}{9} \ m$

Two masses,both equal to $100\, g$,are suspended at the ends of identical light strings of length $\ell = 1.0\, m$,attached to the same point on the ceiling (see figure). At time $t = 0$,they are simultaneously released from rest,one at angle $\theta_1 = 1^o$,the other at angle $\theta_2 = 2^o$ from the vertical. The masses will collide
