Time period \(T\) of a simple pendulum of length \(l\) is given by \(T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\). If the length is increased by \(2 \%\), then an approximate change in the time period is

  1. A \(2 \%\)
  2. B \(1 \%\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{2} \%\)
  4. D None of these
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(1 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}\) On differentiating w.r.t. \(l,\) we get…
