How can we explain the infinite time period of a simple pendulum in an artificial satellite from ground's frame of reference?

If we sit in the satellite's frame of reference(which is non-inertial because the satellite is accelerating) the pendulum's bob will feel a pseudo force just opposite to the gravitational force...

Two different to do Bogobliubov transformation but sees to be contradictary

When try to do bogoliubov transformation on a weak-interaction cold atoms with uniform velocity $vec{v}$, I used two different approaches, giving two different results. The Hamiltonian is$$hat{H}=sum_{r}Psi^{dagger}(r)frac{nabla^{2}}{2m}Psi(r)+frac{g}{2}Psi^{dagger}(r)Psi^{dagger}(r)Psi(r)Psi(r)tag{1}$$...
