13.Oscillations
medium

Is the oscillation of a simple pendulum at the centre of the earth be possible ?

Option A
Option B
Option C
Option D

Solution

No, because the value of $g$ at the centre of earth is zero and hence, in periodic time $\mathrm{T}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$ now put $g=0$

$\therefore \mathrm{T}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{0}}=$ infinite

Means oscillation does not occurs.
