Concept explainers
The way, the pendulum length must be changed to double its period and to halve the period.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The time period of a pendulum is:
Here, l is the length of the pendulum and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
To double the period:
Therefore,
To halve the period,
The length must be decreased to one by fourth its actual length.
Conclusion:
Therefore,
