MCQ

As the temperature is increased, the period of a pendulum:

A
Increases as its effective length increases even though its centre of mass still remains at the centre of the bob.
B
Decreases as its effective length increases even though its centre of mass still remains at the centre of the bob.
C
Increases as its effective length increases due to shifting to centre of mass below the centre of the bob.
D
Decreases as its effective length remains same but the centre of mass shifts above the centre of the bob.

Answer

Increases as its effective length increases even though its centre of mass still remains at the centre of the bob.

Explanation:

As the temperature is increased length of the pendulum increases.

We know that, time period of pendulum $\text{T}=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{\text{L}}{\text{g}}}$

$\Rightarrow\text{T}\propto\sqrt{\text{L}}$

As L, increases so, time period (T) also increases.
