A pendulum clock uses a rock fastened to a very thin steel wire. This clock is designed so that one “tick” of the clock (one complete period of the pendulum) is equal to precisely 1 s. The clock is then heated by 10°C. Will it now run “fast” or “slow”? Find the new value of the period of the clock. Assume the thermal expansion coefficients of the rock are both zero.
