Problem

A pendulum of length 0.80 m0.80\,\text{m} is suspended in a lift that is moving upward with a uniform acceleration of 2.0 m s−22.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-2}. The measured time period of the pendulum inside the lift is 1.60 s1.60\,\text{s}. Determine the value of gg at that place when the lift is at rest.
