Question
State any two laws of the simple pendulum.

Answer

Laws of the simple pendulum:
i. The period of a simple pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of its length.
$\therefore T \propto \sqrt{ L } \ldots$...(when $g =$ constant)
ii. The period of a simple pendulum is inversely proportional to the square root of acceleration due to gravity.
$
\therefore T \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{g}} \ldots \ldots \ldots . . . \text { (when } L=\text { constant) }
$
iii. The period of a simple pendulum does not depend on its mass.
iv. The period of a simple pendulum does not depend on its amplitude (for small amplitude).
