    The time period of a simple pendulum is 2 s. If its length is increased by 4 times, the period becomes:

    A)  6 s                                         

    B)  2 s

    C)  8 s                                         

    D)  4 s

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     The time period of simple pendulum is given by \[T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\] (Given: \[{{l}_{2}}=4{{l}_{1}},{{T}_{1}}=2s\]) \[T\propto \sqrt{l}\]                 Hence,                  \[\frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}}=\sqrt{\frac{{{l}_{2}}}{{{l}_{1}}}}\]                                 \[{{T}_{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{4{{l}_{1}}}{{{l}_{1}}}}\times {{T}_{1}}=2{{T}_{1}}\]                                 \[=2\times 2=4s\]
