NEET 2024 Physics Simple Pendulum MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

If the mass of the bob in a simple pendulum is increased to thrice its original mass and its length is made half its original length, then the new time period of oscillation is x/2 times its original time period. Then the value of x is:

A

2√3

B

4

C

√3

D

√2

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

The time period of a pendulum is T = 2π√(L/g). If the length is halved, T' = 2π√(L/2g) = T/√2. Thus, x = 4.
