MCQ
Given below are two statements:

Statement $I :$ A second's pendulum has a time period of $1$ second.

Statement $II :$ It takes precisely one second to move between the two extreme positions.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • A
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false.
  • Statement $I$ is false but Statement $II$ is true
  • C
    Statement $I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false
  • D
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true.

Answer

Correct option: B.
Statement $I$ is false but Statement $II$ is true
b
Second pendulum has a time period of $2\, sec$ so statement $1$ is false but from one extreme to other it takes only half the time period so statement $2$ is true.
