$A$ light balloon filled with helium of density $\rho_{He}$ is tied to a light string of length $L.$ The string is tied to the ground forming an "inverted" simple pendulum (figure). If the balloon is displaced slightly from equilibrium as in figure and released, the period of the motion is. Take the density of air to be $\rho_{air}$. Assume the air applies a buoyant force on the balloon but does not otherwise affect its motion.

The time period of a simple pendulum is $T$. When the length is increased by $10 \ cm$, its period is $T_1$. When the length is decreased by $10 \ cm$, its period is $T_2$. Then, the relation between $T, T_1$, and $T_2$ is
