$A$ simple pendulum with a bob of mass $m$ oscillates from $A$ to $C$ and back to $A$ such that $PB$ is $H$. If the acceleration due to gravity is $g$,then the velocity of the bob as it passes through $B$ is

  • A
    $mgH$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2gH}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{gH}$
  • D

$A$ pendulum has a time period $T$ in air. When it is made to oscillate in water,its time period is $\sqrt{2} T$. Then the relative density of the material of the bob of the pendulum is (neglect damping).

The bob of a simple pendulum performs $SHM$ with period $T$ in air and with period $T_1$ in water. The relation between $T$ and $T_1$ is (neglect friction due to water,density of the material of the bob is $\frac{9}{8} \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$,density of water is $1 \ g/cc$):

$A$ simple pendulum is placed inside a lift, which is moving with a uniform acceleration. If the time periods of the pendulum while the lift is moving upwards and downwards are in the ratio $1: 2$, then the acceleration of the lift is (Acceleration due to gravity, $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,ms^{-2}$)
