Step-by-step solution

A simple pendulum consists of a point mass attached to an inextensible string and suspended from a support.

The formula to calculate the time period (T)\left(T\right) of a simple pendulum is given by

T=2πlg.......................(1)T = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}} . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ( 1 )

where, ll is the length of the pendulum and gg is the acceleration due to gravity.

Simplify equation (1) to obtain the relation between the time period and the length.

{T2=4π2g×𝓁T2∝l............................(2)\begin{cases}{T}^{2} & = & \dfrac{4{\pi}^{2}}{g} \times 𝓁 \\ {T}^{2} & ∝ & l . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ( 2 )\end{cases}

Equation (2) suggests that the graph between the square of the time period versus the length of the pendulum is a straight line passing through the origin.
