Solution

The correct options are
A
length of the string

D
changing the gravity of the planet

The time period of a simple pendulum depends on the length of the pendulum and the gravity of the planet. So, in order to change the time period of a simple pendulum, its length needs to be changed or it can be shifted to some other planet with different gravity.
