Question
A pendulum suspended from the ceiling of a train oscillates with a time period $2\,second$, when the train is accelerating at $10\,ms^{-2}$. What will be its time period when the train retards at $10\,ms^{-2}$ ? ..... $\sec$
✓
Answer
Resultant acceleration remains unchanged so time period remains unchanged.
