What is the effect on the time period of a simple pendulum if the mass off the bob is doubled?

A

Halved

B

Double

C

Becomes 8 times

D

No effects

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Time period of a simple pendulum,
`T=2pisqrt((L)/(g))`
It means T is independent of mass of the bob m. hence, if mass is doubled, T will not change.
