Find the height of the mountain

Reference no: EM13504498

The period of a physical pendulum is measured first at sea level, where the pendulum completes 100 cycles in 1561 s, and then on a mountaintop, where it completes 100 cycles in 1563 s. Assuming that the change in period is caused only by the variation in g with altitude, find the height of the mountain.
