$A$ simple pendulum of length $1 \,m$ is freely suspended from the ceiling of an elevator. The time period of small oscillations as the elevator moves up with an acceleration of $2 \,m/s^2$ is (use $g=10 \,m/s^2$).

  • A
    $\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{5}} \,s$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}} \pi \,s$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{2}} \,s$
  • D
    $\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{3}} \,s$
