    Why is the motion of a piston in an automobile engine approximately simple harmonic? If a pendulum clock is accurate at sea level‚ will it gain or lose time when taken to high altitude? Why? A pendulum clock works using gravity. Gravity pulls the mass towards the equilibrium position at the bottom. Suppose your high altitude results in gravity being 1/10 what it was at sea level. Using F=ma‚ we see that the force due to gravity is smaller‚ mass is constant‚ so acceleration must decrease. Since the
