A compound pendulum consists of a rigid light rod having two spherical bobs of masses `m_(1) and m_(2)` at distance `l_(1) and l_(2)` from the centre of suspension. Find the time period of oscillations of the pendulum

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`T=2pi sqrt((m_(1)l_(1^(2)+m_(2)l_(2)^(2)))/(m_(1)l_(1)+m_(2)l_(2)))`
