german

Answer:

The length of the rod should be

$\frac{L}{4} \\$

Explanation:

Period of simple pendulum is given by

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}} \\$

We have

$\frac{T_1^2}{T_2^2}=\frac{l_1}{l_2}\\\\\frac{2^2}{1^2}=\frac{L}{l_2}\\\\l_2=\frac{L}{4} \\$

The length of the rod should be

$\frac{L}{4} \\$
