Consider a small cuckoo clock in which the length of the pendulum is L, suspending a mass m with a period of oscillation T. The clock is powered by a falling weight (mass = M) which falls 2 m between the daily windings. The amplitude of the swing is 0.2 radians.
(A) Determine the quality factor Q of the clock.
Data: m = 51 g; T = 1.0 s; M = 938 g.
