Consider a simple pendulum having a bob attached to a string that oscillates under the action of the force of gravity. Suppose that the period of oscillation of the simple pendulum depends on its length (l) , mass of the bob (m) and acceleration due to gravity (g). Derive the expression for its time period using the method of dimensions.
