Which of the following statements is not true? In the case of a simple pendulum for small amplitudes, the period of oscillation is:

  • A
    Directly proportional to the square root of the length of the pendulum
  • B
    Inversely proportional to the square root of the acceleration due to gravity
  • C
    Dependent on the mass, size, and material of the bob
  • D
    Independent of the amplitude

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

$A$ small sphere of radius $r$ is placed on a concave surface of radius of curvature $R$ a little away from the center. When the sphere is released, it oscillates. Assuming the oscillation to be simple harmonic motion and $r << R$, then the time period is

The amplitude of a simple pendulum is $10 \ cm$. When the pendulum is at a displacement of $4 \ cm$ from the mean position,the ratio of kinetic and potential energies at that point is

The length of the seconds pendulum is decreased by $0.3 \ cm$ when it is shifted from place $A$ to place $B$. If the acceleration due to gravity at place $A$ is $981 \ cm/s^2$,the acceleration due to gravity at place $B$ is $($ Take $\pi^2 = 10$ $)$ (in $cm/s^2$)
