What is time period of a simple pendulum in a freely falling lift ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The oscillation of simple pendulum in freely falling lift becomes stop due to the period becomes infinite. Because in freely falling lift. The effective acceleration `g-g= 0` and period of oscillation
`T= 2pi sqrt((l)/(0))`
T = infinite.
