MCQ
If the metal bob of a simple pendulum is replaced by a wooden bob, then its time period will
  • A
    Increase
  • B
    Decrease
  • Remain the same
  • D
    First increase then decrease

Answer

Correct option: C.
Remain the same
c
(c)Remains the same because time period of simple pendulum T is independent of mass of the bob
