Question

A (simple pendulum) oscillates with time period T
now another identical body is put on it without
disturbing the system, then new time period will
(1) Decreases
(2) Increases
(3) Remains same
(4) First increases than decreases...... pls don't spam...❤​

Answer 1

The time period will remain the same.

1. Time period of a simple pendulum is denoted by T = 2π√(L/g)

2. Time period of simple pendulum depends on length and acceleration due to gravity.

3. It is directly proportional to square root of length and inversely proportional to square root of g.

4. It also depends on temperature, as length depends on temperature.

5. Thus, adding a body on system will not affect the time period until it changes the length of pendulum.
