If a simple pendulum is taken to place where g decreases by $2\%$, then the time period
A
Decreases by $1\%$
B
Decreases by $2\%$
C
Increases by $2\%$
D
Increases by $1\%$
Solution
(d) $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{l}{g}} $ ==> $T \propto \frac{l}{{\sqrt g }}$
$ \Rightarrow \frac{{\Delta T}}{T} \times 100 = – \frac{1}{2}\left( {\frac{{\Delta g}}{g}} \right) \times 100$$ = – \frac{1}{2}( – \,2\% ) = 1\% .$
