Question

A simple pendulum has time period $T$. If its length is increased by $21\%$, the new time period is:

Options

  1. A

    $1.1T$

  2. B

    $1.21T$

  3. C

    $T\sqrt{1.21}$

  4. D

    $T/1.1$

Solution

$T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

$$T' = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{1.21L}{g}} = T\sqrt{1.21} = 1.1T$$
