The clock shows the correct time after 12 hour. The total time gained by the pendulum clock can be given by, T=12× 60=720 minutes. Since gain is 1 min/day; hence 720 days the pendulum clock will indicate the correct time again.

Q. After how much time a pendulum clock will indicate the correct time again? if it with a $12$ hour dial happens to gain $1$ min/day. (After setting the clock to the correct time)

The clock shows the correct time after $12$ hour. The total time gained by the pendulum clock can be given by,
$T = 12 \times 60 = 720$ minutes.
Since gain is $1$ min/day; hence $720$ days the pendulum clock will indicate the correct time again.
