The time period of a simple pendulum depends on :

A

length of the pendulum

B

acceleration due to gravity

C

both length and acceleration due to gravity

D

mass of the bob of the simple pendulum.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`T=2pisqrt(l//g)` . So T depends upon l and g.
