Detailed Solution
The time period of simple pendulum in airT=t0=2πlg… (i)l, being the length of simple pendulum. In water, effective weight of bobw′=weight of bob in air - upthrust⇒ ρVgeff =mg−m/g=ρVg−ρ′Vg=ρ−ρ′Vgwhere ρ′= density of bob.ρ=density of water∴ geff=ρ−ρ′ρg=1−ρ′ρg∴ t=2πl1−ρ′ρg⋯Thus, tt0=11−ρ′ρ=11−1000(4/3×1000)=44−3=2⇒ t=2t0
