Answer:
there will be no affect on the time period of the pendulum.
Explanation:
the time period of a simple pendulum doesn't depends on it's mass ,so either you fill 1/4 or 3/4 of the Bob with Mercury,the time period will remain same.
infact the time period of a simple pendulum only depends on the length of it's string and the force of gravity.
