$A$ simple pendulum is vibrating in an evacuated chamber. It will oscillate with:

Two masses,both equal to $100\, g$,are suspended at the ends of identical light strings of length $\ell = 1.0\, m$,attached to the same point on the ceiling (see figure). At time $t = 0$,they are simultaneously released from rest,one at angle $\theta_1 = 1^o$,the other at angle $\theta_2 = 2^o$ from the vertical. The masses will collide

$A$ simple pendulum of length $L$ is constructed from a point object of mass $m$ suspended by a massless string attached to a fixed pivot point. $A$ small peg is placed at a distance $2L/3$ directly below the fixed pivot point so that the pendulum would swing as shown in the figure. The mass is displaced $5$ degrees from the vertical and released. How long does it take to return to its starting position?

The bob of a simple pendulum executes simple harmonic motion in water with a period $t$,while the period of oscillation of the bob is ${t_0}$ in air. Neglecting the frictional force of water and given that the density of the bob is $(4/3) \times 1000 \ kg/m^3$. What relationship between $t$ and ${t_0}$ is true?

$A$ simple pendulum is suspended from the roof of a trolley which moves in a horizontal direction with an acceleration $a$. The time period is given by $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g'}}$,where $g'$ is equal to:
