  1. A \(86.4\)
  2. B \(4.32\)
  3. C \(43.2\)
  4. D \(8.64\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(43.2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\({T}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\ell}{g}}\) \(\frac{\Delta {T}}{{T}}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta \ell}{\ell}\) \(\Delta {T}=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{0.1}{100} \times 24 \times 3600\) \(\Delta {T}=43.2\)
