A rubber ball filled with water, having a small hole is used as the bob of a simple pendulum. The time period of such a pendulum
- A is a constant
- B decreases with time
- C increases with time
- D first increases and then decreases, finally having same value as at the beginning
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) first increases and then decreases, finally having same value as at the beginning
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\text { From } T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\)
The effective length increases due to this flow of water. Therefore, \(\mathrm{T}\) increases. As the water flows out, the length decreases and becomes equal to the original length. Hence, the time period becomes equal to the value at the beginning.
