Using a simple pendulum experiment, $g$ is determined by measuring its time period $T$. Which of the following plots represents the correct relation between the pendulum length $L$ and time period $T$?

The bob of a simple pendulum having length $l$ is displaced from the mean position to an angular position $\theta$ with respect to the vertical. If it is released,then the velocity of the bob at the equilibrium position is:

$A$ trolley of mass $m_1$ is placed on a horizontal rigid pair of rails at the same height. $A$ mass $m_2$ is suspended from the trolley vertically by means of an ideal massless rope. The rope hangs between the rails without touching them. The trolley can move along smooth rails but cannot move in any other direction. The suspended mass is given a small oscillation and performs $SHM$ after being displaced slightly from its stable equilibrium position in two ways: first,perpendicular to the rails,and second,parallel to the rails. The ratio of the time periods of these two $SHM$s (second case to first case) is:

The instantaneous displacement of a simple pendulum oscillator is given by $x = A \cos \left( \omega t + \frac{\pi}{4} \right)$. Its speed will be maximum at time

$A$ simple pendulum has a time period $T_1$. The point of suspension is now moved upward according to the equation $y = kt^2$,where $k = 1 \ m/s^2$. If the new time period is $T_2$,then the ratio $\frac{T_1^2}{T_2^2}$ will be (take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$):
