Homework Statement
Pendulum clocks are typically made so the period of the pendulum is 1 second or 2 seconds, but they don't have to be. Suppose a grandfather clock uses a pendulum that is 85 centimeters long. The clock is accidentally broken, and when repaired, the length is shorter by 2.0 millimeters. Every 24 hours of correct time, the "repaired" clock will be off how much?
Homework Equations
Tp = 2(pi)sqrt(L/g)
The Attempt at a Solution
So i found the period of the pendulum for both clocks but now I am stuck as to how to find the error...
