Time period of a simple pendulum is $T$ inside a lift when the lift is stationary. If the lift moves upwards with an acceleration $g / 2$,the time period of the pendulum will be

  • A
    $\sqrt{3} T$
  • B
    $\frac{T}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}} T$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} T$

$A$ simple pendulum of length $l$ has a brass bob attached at its lower end. Its period is $T$. If a steel bob of the same size,having a density $x$ times that of brass,replaces the brass bob and its length is changed so that the period becomes $2T$,then the new length is:

$Assertion:$ The time period of a simple pendulum on a satellite orbiting the Earth is infinity.
$Reason:$ The time period of a simple pendulum is inversely proportional to $\sqrt{g}$.

In an elevator,a spring clock of time period $T_S$ (mass attached to a spring) and a pendulum clock of time period $T_P$ are kept. If the elevator accelerates upwards,what happens to their time periods?
