The time period of oscillation of the pendulum is inversely proportional to the square root of the value of acceleration due to gravity (g) at that place. g is low at heights above the sea level. So T increases.
Period increases. So frequency decreases. Hence the slow movenment.

What is the principle behind pendulum clock?
A pendulum clock operates on the principle that the period of a pendulum (the time it takes to swing back and forth) is constant and determined by the length of the pendulum. By counting the swings of the pendulum, the clock can keep time accurately. The mechanism of the clock uses gears to translate the regular swinging motion of the pendulum into the movement of the clock's hands.
When a pendulum clock at sea level is taken to the top of a high mountain what happens to the time?
The pendulum clock will run slightly faster at the top of the high mountain due to the lower gravitational force and therefore shorter period of the pendulum. This effect is known as gravitational time dilation and is predicted by the theory of relativity.
What clock came after pendulum clock?
The pendulum clock was followed by the quartz clock. Quartz clocks use the vibrations of a quartz crystal to keep time, and are more accurate and reliable than pendulum clocks. They have largely replaced pendulum clocks in modern timekeeping.
Would you find a pendulum on a colck?
Yes, a clock can have a pendulum. Pendulum clocks use a swinging weight on a rod to regulate its timekeeping mechanism. The swing of the pendulum controls the movement of the clock's hands.
What is clock pendulum?
The pendulum of a clock is the long weighted bar that swings back and forth in the case below the clock. It was discovered several hundred years ago that the time it takes for one swing of a particular pendulum is constant, no matter how big or small the swing is. It can, therefore, be used to measure time.

What is a part of a clock starting with pen?
A part of a clock that starts with "pen" is the pendulum. The pendulum helps regulate the timekeeping of certain types of clocks by controlling the speed at which the clock's gears move.
How pendulum clock work?
A pendulum clock works by using the swinging motion of a pendulum to regulate the movement of the clock's gears. As the pendulum swings back and forth, it ticks off intervals of time, allowing the clock's gears to move at a precise rate. This consistent movement is what keeps the hands of the clock accurately displaying the time.
What is the reason of pendulum clocks become slow in summer?
Pendulum clocks can become slow in summer due to expansion of materials in warmer temperatures, which can affect the length of the pendulum and thus the timing of the clock. As the pendulum lengthens, it takes longer to complete each swing, leading to a slower overall timekeeping.
Frictionless pendulum is an example of?
Frictionlist pendulum is an example of the pendulum of a clock, a reversible process, free.
Who invented to pendulum clock?
The pendulum clock was invented by Dutch scientist and inventor Christiaan Huygens in 1656. Huygens' design revolutionized timekeeping by providing a more accurate way to measure time using the regular motion of a pendulum.
Was the digital clock invented after the pendulum clock?
Oh yes. pendulum Clocks rely on mechanics. Digital Clocks rely on Electronics. And we didn't learn to use Electronics until way later than mechanics.
Where was the pendulum clock invented?
In England
