Solution
The correct option is D Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct The time period of a simple pendulum is given by ,
T=2π√l/g ,
where l= distance between point of suspension and center of bob (center of gravity)
It is clear that time period T of simple pendulum depends on its length l , hence assertion is incorrect but reason is correct .
