Physics Question from JEE Main 2026 · 22 January, Shift 2

Using a simple pendulum experiment gg is determined by measuring its time period TT. Which of the following plots represents the correct relation between the pendulum length LL and the time period TT?

Four graphs of $$1/T^2$$ (vertical axis) against $$L$$ (horizontal axis), stacked top to bottom. The first falls slowly at first and then steeply, concave down. The second is a straight line of negative slope. The third rises with increasing steepness, concave up. The fourth starts high, drops steeply and then flattens towards the axis, the shape of a rectangular hyperbola.
