Simple Pendulum

T0 is the time period of a simple pendulum at a place. if the length of the pendulum is reduced to 116\frac{1}{16} times of its initial value, the modified time period is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. T∝lT \propto \sqrt{l}
  2. l′=l16⇒T′=T04l' = \frac{l}{16} \Rightarrow T' = \frac{T_0}{4}
  3. So the answer is (b) 14T0\frac{1}{4}T_0.
