What would a Pendulum do if Weightless
Here's another test of weightlessness: a pendulum. When a pendulum is pulled out, it's gravity
that pulls it back. Gravity also keeps it swinging. A pendulum requires gravity to swing back and forth. So...
Here's a question:
What to you think would happen to this pendulum if it was suddenly in a weightless enviromnet?

What do you think? Would the pendulum keep swinging in a weightless environment?
Yes. It would keep on swinging.
No. It would not keep swinging.
