AP Physics C: Mechanics
7.5 Simple and Physical Pendulums
7.2 Frequency and Period of SHM
A simple pendulum consisting of a small sphere of mass \(M\) attached to the end of a light string of length \(L\) oscillates with a small amplitude and period \(T\). If the sphere is replaced by one of mass \(2M\) while the length \(L\) and the initial angular amplitude remain unchanged, which of the following statements correctly compares the new period to \(T\) and provides the correct physical justification?
