CBSEENPH11026134

If the length of a pendulum is made 9 times and mass of the bob is made 4 times, then the value of time period becomes :

  • 3 T

  • 3/2T

  • 4T

  • 2T

Solution

A.

3 T

The time for one complete cycle, a left swing, is called the period. The period depends on length of the period. The period depends on the length of the pendulum and also to a slight degree on the amplitude, the width of the pendulum's swing.

Time period  = 2πlgi.e time period does not depend on the mass of the bob.T  lT1T2 =l1g1TT2= l9lT2 = 3T
