gravitation

VITEEE 2015 Sample Questions › Mechanics questions › gravitation

The mass and radius of a planet are twice that of the earth Then the period of oscillation of a seconds pendulum on that planet will be ans given is âˆš2 sec But i think the ans should be 2 sec only Because it is the only time period of seconds pendulum

Time period of a pendulum = (something)âˆšl/g

g = GM/R²

R' = 2R and M' = 2M

Hence, g' = g/2 => T' = âˆš2T = âˆš2 seconds.......

Anything wrong in this solution?
