A pendulum on some moon has a length of 1.5meters and a period of 4.2seconds. On Earth a girl throws a rock 13meters in the air, if she was on that moon how high would that same rock go if she threw it with the same effect? (Ignore all air resistance)
Friends:
If you take a rope and fix the top end and allow the rope to swing, then it is just a pendulum and the period of swing is widely known (and on wikipedia) as approx. T = 2*pi*(L/g)^0.5 where L is the length of the pendulum and g is gravity.
