MCQ
Identify correct statement among the following
  • A
    The greater the mass of a pendulum bob, the shorter is its frequency of oscillation
  • B
    A simple pendulum with a bob of mass $M$ swings with an angular amplitude of $40^{\circ}$. When its angular amplitude is $20^{\circ}$, the tension in the string is less than $M g \cos 20^{\circ}$.
  • As the length of a simple pendulum is increased, the maximum velocity of its bob during its oscillation will also decreases
  • D
    The fractional change in the time period of a pendulum on changing the temperature is independent of the length of the pendulum

Answer

Correct option: C.
As the length of a simple pendulum is increased, the maximum velocity of its bob during its oscillation will also decreases
(c)
