Question
Name the factors on which the time period of a simple pendulum depends. Write the relation for the time period in terms of the above named factors.
Solution
The time period of a simple pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of the length of the pendulum
The time period of a simple pendulum is inversely proportional to the square root of acceleration due to gravity
`"T"=2root(pi)(1/g)`
Where T is the time period,
l is the length of the pendulum,
g is the acceleration due to gravity
