The bob of a simple pendulum is displaced from its equilibrium position $O$ to a position $Q$ which is at height h above $O$ and the bob is then released. Assuming the mass of the bob to be $m$ and time period of oscillations to be $2.0\, sec$, the tension in the string when the bob passes through $O$ is

  • A

    $m\,(g + \pi \sqrt {2g\,h} )$

  • B

    $m\,(g + \sqrt {{\pi ^2}g\,h} )$

  • C

    $m\,\left( {g + \sqrt {\frac{{{\pi ^2}}}{2}g\,h} } \right)$

  • D

    $m\,\left( {g + \sqrt {\frac{{{\pi ^2}}}{3}g\,h} } \right)$
