Let $l_1$ be the length of a simple pendulum. Its length changes to $l_2$ to increase the periodic time by $20 \%$. The ratio $\frac{l_2}{l_1}$ is:

  • A
    $1.22$
  • B
    $1.33$
  • C
    $1.44$
  • D
    $1.55$

$A$ small sphere oscillates simple harmonically in a watch glass whose radius of curvature is $1.6 \ m$. The period of oscillation of the sphere is (acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \ m/s^2$) (in $\pi \ s$)

The angular velocity and the amplitude of a simple pendulum are $\omega$ and $a$ respectively. At a displacement $X$ from the mean position,if its kinetic energy is $T$ and potential energy is $V$,then the ratio of $T$ to $V$ is:

Two pendulums have time periods $T$ and $\frac{5T}{4}$. They start $S.H.M.$ at the same time from the mean position. What will be the phase difference between them after the bigger pendulum has completed one oscillation (in $^o$)?
