3) The center of gravity of a simple pendulum of mass m and length L is located at the pendulum bob, a distance L from the pivot point. The center of gravity of a uniform rod of the same mass m and length 2L pivoted at one end is also a distance L from the pivot point. Compared to the period of the simple pendulum, is the period of this uniform rod a) longer; b) shorter; or c) the same and why?
