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 \(T_M\). If the Young’s modulus of the material of the wire is \(Y\) then \(\frac{1}{Y}\) is equal to:
(\(g=\) gravitational acceleration)
1. \( \left[\left(\frac{{T}_{{M}}}{{T}}\right)^2-1\right] \frac{{Mg}}{{A}} \)
2. \(\left[1-\left(\frac{{T}_{{M}}}{{T}}\right)^2\right] \frac{{A}}{{Mg}} \)
3. \(\left[1-\left(\frac{{T}}{{T}_{{M}}}\right)^2\right] \frac{{A}}{{Mg}} \)
4. \(\left[\left(\frac{{T}_{{M}}}{{T}}\right)^2-1\right] \frac{{A}}{{Mg}}\)
A simple pendulum has a time period \(T\) in air. The bob is then completely immersed and continues to oscillate freely in a non-viscous liquid whose density is \(\left ( \dfrac{1}{16}\right )^\mathrm{th} \) of that of the bob. Assuming no damping and only the effect of buoyancy, what is the new time period of oscillation?

If the time period of a \(2\) m long simple pendulum is \(2\) s, the acceleration due to gravity at the place where the pendulum is executing simple harmonic motion is:
1. \(\pi^{2}\) m/s2
2. \(2\pi^{2}\) m/s2
3. \(9.8\) m/s2
4. \(16\) m/s2
