The period of small oscillation of a simple pendulum is $T$. The ratio of the density of the liquid to the density of the material of the bob is $\rho$ (where $\rho < 1$). When the bob is immersed in the liquid,the new time period of small oscillation will be:

  • A
    $T$
  • B
    $T(1 - \rho)$
  • C
    $\frac{T}{\sqrt{1 - \rho}}$
  • D
    $T\sqrt{1 - \rho}$
