The time period of a pendulum is 2seconds. The spherical bob of the pendulum, which is empty from inside, has a mass of 50g. Another solid bob of same radius but having a different mass of 100g now replaces this. The new time period will be

Solution
The correct option is B2s Given- Time period of 50g bob =2sec Time period of 100g bob =? Formula of Time period [T=2π⋅√lg] since the time period is independent of mass of the Bob and Hence time period do not change if mass of the Bob changes. Thus Time period =2sec .
