In an experiment to determine the period of a simple pendulum of length $1\, m$,it is attached to different spherical bobs of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$. The two spherical bobs have uniform mass distribution. If the relative difference in the periods is found to be $5 \times 10^{-4}$,the difference in radii,$|r_1 - r_2|$,is best given by .... $cm$.

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $0.1$
  • C
    $0.5$
  • D
    $0.01$
