The period of a simple pendulum suspended from the ceiling of a car is `T` when the car is at rest. If the car moves with a constant acceleration the period of the pendulum

A

T is reduced, T is incrased

B

T is reduced, T remains constant

C

T is increased, T remains constant

D

T remains constant, T is decreased

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
First case T decreases as effective acceleration is increased.
