A simple pendulum is executing simple harmonic motion with a time period T. If the length of the pendulum is increased by 21%, the percentage increase in the time period of the pendulum of increased length is

a
10%
b
21%
c
30%
d
50%

detailed solution

Correct option is A

If initial length l1=100  then  l2=121 By using  T=2πlg⇒T1T2=l1l2 Hence,  T1T2=100121⇒T2=1.1 T1% increase =  T2−T1T1×100=10 %
