The correct answer is:
As two pendulums begin two swings simultaneously, then
Where, and are the number of oscillations of first and second pendulum respectively and and be their respective time periods.
The time period of simple pendulum is given by
where, l =length of pendulum
and g = acceleration due to gravity
…. (ii)
So, from Eqs. (i) And (ii), we get
Here,
Hence, the ratio of pendulum lengths
