From graph it is clear that wher

$\mathrm{L}=1 \mathrm{m}, \mathrm{T}^{2}=4 \mathrm{s}^{2}$

As we know,

$\mathrm{T}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{L}}{\mathrm{g}}}$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{g}=\frac{4 \pi^{2} \mathrm{L}}{\mathrm{T}^{2}}$

$=4 \times\left(\frac{22}{7}\right)^{2} \times \frac{1}{4}=\left(\frac{22}{7}\right)^{2}$

$\therefore \mathrm{g}=\frac{484}{49}=9.87 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$
