time period

A simple pendulum has a time period “T” in Murree. In Karachi, it has a different time period. What would you do to make its time period the same as it was in Murree?

The time period depends on gravitational acceleration, which is slightly lower at higher altitudes like Murree. To make it the same in Karachi, the length of the pendulum should be slightly increased. Related Questions: A simple pendulum has a time period “T”.

A simple pendulum has a time period “T”. What will happen to its time period if its thread length is shortened to half?

The time period of a pendulum is given by  T = 2π √(l/g) . If length is halved, the time period decreases by a factor of √2 , making it shorter.
