A pendulum suspended from the ceiling of an elevator at rest has a time period of oscillation equal to `T_(1)`. When the elevator moves up with an acceleration a, the time period becomes `T_(2)` and when the elevator moves down with an acceleration a, its time period becomes `T_(3)`, then find the expression for `T_(1)` in terms of `T_(2)` and `T_(3)`.

To solve the problem, we need to derive the expression for the time period of a pendulum suspended in an elevator that is either accelerating upward or downward. We will denote the time periods as follows: - \( T_1 \): Time period when the elevator is at rest. - \( T_2 \): Time period when the elevator is moving upward with acceleration \( a \). - \( T_3 \): Time period when the elevator is moving downward with acceleration \( a \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: ...
