Question

The time period of simple pendulum is ‘T’ when the length increases by 10cm, its period is T1. When the length is decreased by 10 cm, its time period is T2. When the relation between T, T1and T2 is

Moderate
Solution

time period of simple pendulum is T=2πlg

l  other terms are constants

 l=KT2-----(1)    proportionality constant is K,

by the question,
l+10=KT12----(2)
l-10=KT22-----(3)
Adding (2) and (3) equations
2l=KT12+T22

substitute (1)
2KT2=KT12+T22
2T2=(T12+T22)
