    A simple pendulum from earth is shifted on to moon (g = 1/6 g). For 1 minute on earth, the time on moon as measured by this pendulum is (in second):

    A)  30.6                                      

    B)  147

    C)  10.5                                      

    D)  60.0

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Time period is given as \[T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\Rightarrow T\propto \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\] \[\frac{{{T}_{moon}}}{{{T}_{earth}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{g}_{earth}}}{{{g}_{moon}}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{g}_{earth}}}{\frac{{{g}_{earth}}}{6}}}=\sqrt{6}\] \[{{T}_{moon}}=\sqrt{6}\times 1\min =\sqrt{6}\times 60\]                 \[=146.96s\] \[=147\,s\]
