A simple pendulum of lengthLis placed between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor having electric field E, as shown in figure. Its bob has massmand charge q. The time period of the pendulum is given by:

Question diagram: A simple pendulum of length L is placed between the plates o

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:


Two forces will be acting on the mass m, gravity force and force by the electric field.

Thus, the effective force =  qE2+mg2
From force equation, geff=g2+qEm2
Time period of the pendulum is T=2πLgeff
=2π Lg2+qEm2
