Answer:
<em>Time period of pendulum is 2.02 s.</em>
Explanation:
A <em>simple pendulum</em> is a device which consists of mass m hanging from the string of length L attached to the some point.When displaced and released its swings back and forth with periodic motion.
The time period of pendulum is defined as time taken by the pendulum to complete one full oscillation . it is denoted by T.
By <em>Huygens law of period of pendulum</em>,
T = 2π eqn 1
where L is the length of pendulum,
g is acceleration due to gravity
<em>Period of pendulum is independent of the mass of pendulum,</em>
<em />
Substituting values in eqn 1
T = 2π
T = 2.02 s
<em>Time period of pendulum is 2.02 s.</em>

Answer:
Explanation:
The horizontal distance covered by the ball in the falling is only determined by its horizontal motion - in fact, it is given by
where
is the horizontal velocity
t is the time of flight
The time of flight, instead, is only determined by the vertical motion of the ball: however, in this problem the vertical velocity is not changed (it is zero in both cases), so the time of flight remains the same.
In the first situation, the horizontal distance covered is
in the second case, the horizontal velocity is increased to
And so the new distance travelled will be
So, the distance increases linearly with the horizontal velocity.
