Statement-1 `:` If a pendulum clock is taken to a mountain top, it gains time. Statement-2 `:` The value of acceleration due to gravity is low at mountain top than at plen.A. Statement -1 is true, Statement-2, Statement -2 is correct explanation of statement-1.B. Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true, Statement-2 is not a correct explanantion of Statement-1.C. Statement-1 is correct, Statement-2 is false.D. Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true.

Answer» Correct Answer - D
At mountain top, the value of acceleration of gravity `(g)` is less than that a planes. Since `t prop 1//sqrt(g)`, so the time period of vibration of pendulum clock increasees i.e. it starts taking more time to complete each vibration. Therefore the pendulum clock becomes slow.
