Q28 / 214 · NTA Abhyas (NEET) 2020 · Physics · Oscillations

The period of a simple pendulum inside a stationary lift is T. The lift accelerates upwards with an acceleration of g3. The time period of pendulum will be

  • A
    2 T
  • B
    T2
  • Correct answer
    C
    32T
  • D
    T3

Solution

When lift accelerates upwards, then effective acceleration on the pendulum

geff=g+g3=4g3

∴ Time period T′=2πlgeff=2πl4g/3

=32.2πlg

= 32 T

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
