The time period of the simple pendulum is written as;
T = 2 \(π \sqrt {\frac{l}{g}}\)
Here we have " l " as the length, and g is the acceleration due to gravity and T is the time period.
CALCULATION:
Given: Length, l = 2 m, and time period, t = 2 s
Now, using the time period of the simple pendulum we have;
T = 2 \(π \sqrt {\frac{l}{g}}\) ---(1)
Now, on putting the given values in equation (1) we have;
2 = 2 \(\times π\sqrt{\frac{ 2}{g}}\)
1 = \(π \sqrt{\frac{2}{g}}\)
Now, on squaring both sides we have;
1 =\(π^2 \times \frac{2}{g}\)
⇒ g = 2π2 m/s2
Hence, option 4) is the correct answer.
