Question

A simple pendulum of length L and having a bob of mass m is suspended in a car. The car is moving on a circular track of radius R with a uniform speed v. If the pendulum makes small oscillations in a radial direction about its equilibrium positions, its time period of oscillation is:

Solution

The correct option is C T=2π  Lg2+v4R2
The period of the pendulum, T=2πLa where a= resultant acceleration=g2+(V2R)2[V2R=centripital acceleratiop ,g=acceleration due to gravity].
T=2π  Lg2+V4R2
Option B is the correct answer.
