The mass and the radius of a planet are twice that of earth. Then period of oscillation of a second pendulum on that planet will be :

Answer»

`2 sqrt(2)s`
`(1)/(2)s`
`(1)/(sqrt(2))s`
2 s

Solution :On earth
`G=(GM)/(R^(2))`
On PLANET,
`g'=(Gxx2M)/((2R)^(2))=(g)/(2)`
`(T)/(T)= sqrt((g)/(g'))= sqrt((g)/(g//2))= sqrt(2)`
`T'= sqrt(2)xxT= sqrt(2)XX 2=2 sqrt(2)`
