The time period of oscillation of a simple pendulum of length $L$ suspended from the roof of a vehicle,which moves without friction down an inclined plane of inclination $\alpha$,is given by:

  • A
    $2 \pi \sqrt{L / (g \cos \alpha)}$
  • B
    $2 \pi \sqrt{L / (g \sin \alpha)}$
  • C
    $2 \pi \sqrt{L / g}$
  • D
    $2 \pi \sqrt{L / (g \tan \alpha)}$
