A pendulum is 1.20m long is observer to have 1m Long is observed to have a period of 2.00s at certain location then the acceleration due to gravity is ,

A

`9.71m//s^(2)`

B

`9.85m//s^(2)`

C

`9.79m//s^(2)`

D

`10.1m//s^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

the acceleration due to gravity is ,
`g=(4pi^(2))/(T_(p)^(2))l=(4pi^(2))/((2.00)^(2))=(4xx(3.14)^(2))/((4.00s^(2)))xx1`
`=(4xx9.85)/(4.00)=(39.4)/(4)=9.85ms^(-2)`
