MCQ
The period of a simple pendulum is doubled, when
  • A
    Its length is doubled
  • B
    The mass of the bob is doubled
  • Its length is made four times
  • D
    The mass of the bob and the length of the pendulum are doubled

Answer

Correct option: C.
Its length is made four times
c
(c) $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{l}{g}} $

==> $T \propto \sqrt l $
