Referring to the text, answer the following questions:
1) What is the principle of operation of pendulum clocks?
2) What is the relationship between the size of the pendulum and the period?
3) What is the influence of gravity acceleration on a pendulum?
4) Are there other applications for the pendulum?

1) The principle of operation of pendulum clocks is based on the transmission of the movement acquired by the escape wheel to the gear system, which in turn is connected to the hands and makes them rotate.
2) The larger the pendulum, the longer the period.
3) The acceleration of gravity influences the period of the pendulum, and if it changes, the period will also change.
4) Yes, there are other applications for the pendulum.
