Q88 / 90 · JEE Main 2015 (04 Apr) · Physics
A pendulum made of a uniform wire of cross sectional area A has time period T. When an additional mass M is added to its bob, the time period changes to . If the Young's modulus of the material of the wire is , then is equal to:
(gravitational acceleration)
(gravitational acceleration)
- A
- Correct answerB
- C
- D
Solution

Initial length . Time period . After suspending mass . Youngs modulus
Change in length of wire
Now time period
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
