Question

The time period of simple pendulum when it is made to oscilate on the surface of moon

A
Increase
B
Decrease
C
Becomes infinite
D
Remains changed
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct option is A. Increase
$$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}$$
$$\left(as\ T \propto \dfrac {1}{\sqrt g}\right)$$

At the surface of moon, $$g$$ decrease hence time period increase
