$A$ 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.

$A$ simple pendulum of length $l$ and having a bob of mass $M$ is suspended in a car. The car is moving on a circular track of radius $R$ with a uniform speed $v$. If the pendulum makes small oscillations in a radial direction about its equilibrium position,what will be its time period?

If the length of the oscillating simple pendulum is made $\frac{1}{3}$ times the original, keeping the amplitude the same, then the increase in its total energy at a place will be: (in $\times$)

The metallic bob of a simple pendulum has the relative density $\rho$. The time period of this pendulum is $T$. If the metallic bob is immersed in water,then the new time period is given by

The bob of a swinging seconds pendulum (one whose time period is $2 \,s$) has a small speed $v_{0}$ at its lowest point. Its height from this lowest point $2.25 \,s$ after passing through it is given by
