Solution

The correct option is B False

Explanation:

  1. The time taken by a pendulum to complete one oscillation is called the time period.
  2. The time period of a simple pendulum is given as, T=2πlg ,where l the s length of the pendulum, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
  3. Therefore, the time period depends upon the length of the pendulum and acceleration due to gravity.
  4. Time period of a pendulum does not depend upon mass.

Hence, the given statement is false.
