Detailed Solution

The false statement among the given options is:

"Pendulums work faster when you swing them gently."

This statement is not true. In reality, the speed at which a pendulum swings (its period) is primarily determined by its length and the strength of gravity. The amplitude (how far you pull it to one side before releasing it) does not significantly affect the period. A pendulum's period remains relatively constant as long as the amplitude is not extremely large.
