if by arc you mean the "Period" of the pendulum then yes, it does: with each revolution the period of the pendulum (the time taken to swing back and forth once) does decrease.

The amplitude of the pendulum?

The amplitude of a pendulum is the distance between its equilibrium point and the farthest point that it reaches during each oscillation.


Will a pendulum time period increase or decrease when taken to the top of the mountain?

The time period of a pendulum will increase when taken to the top of a mountain. This is because the acceleration due to gravity decreases at higher altitudes, resulting in a longer time for the pendulum to complete each oscillation.

Can the time period of a pendulum be infinite?

Perhaps if either:The length of the pendulum is infiniteThe pendulum is in perfect zero gravity and has no momentumBut in each of those cases, does it really qualify as a pendulum?


In what way is gravity reduced with distance from earth?

Each time you double your distance from the center of the earth, the accelerationof gravity, and its force on you (your weight) decrease by 75%.


How does increasing the mass of an object affect the distance the object travels?

In zero gravity, the mass of an object does not effect the distance an object travels at all unless there is a constent force acting upon it. However, if it is in contact with another object, and gravity is what keeps the 2 or more objects touching each other, then mass will effect the distance it travels because of friction.

How does each part of the pendulum work?

A pendulum could be almost anything, even a soap on a string. They're not picky, so I can't really say I know how each part works.


What force keeps a pendulum going?

Gravity, but the pendulum does not keep going. Each swing is a tiny bit shorter than the previous one.

If the distance between the objects increases, the force of gravity will decrease.
