To solve the problem, we need to prove that the percentage change in the time period of a simple pendulum, when the temperature changes, is given by \(50 \alpha d\theta\), where \(\alpha\) is the coefficient of linear expansion and \(d\theta\) is the change in temperature. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understand the Time Period Formula**: The time period \(T\) of a simple pendulum is given by the formula: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} ...
