The time period of a simple pendulum inside a stationary lift is $T$. When the lift starts accelerating upwards with an acceleration of $\frac{g}{3}$,the time period of the pendulum will be

  • A
    $\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} T$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} T$
  • C
    $\frac{2 T}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 T}{\sqrt{5}}$
