A simple pendulum is made by suspending a bob of mass 1 kg by a string of length l. Now if the length of this pendulum is increased to 4l, then its time period T will :
- remain the same
- become twice
- become four times
- become half

Answer
become twice
Reason — As T ∝
When l2 = 4l then,
T2 ∝ = 2 = 2T
Hence, time period T will become twice.
