NEET · Physics · STD 11 - 13. oscillations

If the mass of the bob in a simple pendulum is increased to thrice its original mass and its length is made half its original length, then the new time period of oscillation is \(\frac{x}{2}\) times its original time period. Then the value of \(x\) is:

  1. A \(\sqrt{2}\)
  2. B \(2 \sqrt{3}\)
  3. C \(4\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\sqrt{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(T^{\prime}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\ell^{\prime}}{g}} \text { where } \ell^{\prime}=\frac{\ell}{2}\) \(T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\ell}{g}}\)
