A simple pendulum consisting of a bob of mass m attached to a string of length L swings with a period T. If the bob's mass is doubled, approximately what will the pendulum's new period be? A: T/2B: TC: sqrt(2)*TD: 2T ----------------If the pendulum is brought on the moon where the gravitational acceleration is about g/6, approximately what will its period now be? A: T/6B: T/sqrt(6)C: sqrt(6)*TD: 6T ----------------If the pendulum is taken into the orbiting space station what will happen to the bob?A: It will continue to oscillate in a vertical plane with the same period.B: It will no longer oscillate because there is no gravity in space.C: It will no longer oscillate because both the pendulum and the point to which it is attached are in free fall.D: It will oscillate much faster with a period that approaches zero.---------------Please choose from A-D for the 3 questions and explain your reasoning.
