I have been pondering pendulum clocks. I was wondering what the ADEV of a
pendulum would show. I assume that you could see the errors in the
gear train.
You should see the period of each gear. You should see the spring wind
down
and being rewound.
Further, would you be able to see the phase of the moon and the tides?
This
is using the pendulum as a gravimeter. Would it be sensitive enough
for that?
(have to stop my mind from wandering.)

Hi:
I just started reading the subject book where the mathematics of the
pendulum are used as a unifying idea to tour physics.
Included is a correct illustration on page 205 of Foucault's gyroscope
demonstration that the earth turns 360 degrees in a sidereal day.
Maybe there will be a reference to a gyroscope as a pendulum that's
making full circles rather than swinging back and forth.
