Question

Time period of simple pendulum does NOT depend on:
  1. A
    Length of pendulum
  2. B
    Acceleration due to gravity
  3. C
    Amplitude (for small oscillations)
  4. D
    Both amplitude and mass
    Correct

Correct answer

Both amplitude and mass

Explanation

T = 2π√(L/g) depends on L and g only. For small angles, T is independent of mass and amplitude (isochronous property).
