If the length of a simple pendulum is quadrupled (increased by a factor of 4), what happens to its time period?
A. It is halved.
B. It remains unchanged.
C. It doubles.
D. It quadruples.

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
The time period of a simple pendulum is given by T = 2π√(L/g), where L is the length of the string and g is acceleration due to gravity. The time period is directly proportional to the square root of the length (T ∝ √L). If L becomes 4L, the new time period T' = √4 = 2 times the original. It doubles.

Radioactive decay to 1/32 initial: number of half-lives:
A. 5
B. 4
C. 6
D. 3

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
(1/2)ⁿ = 1/32 ⇒ 2ⁿ = 32 ⇒ n = 5 half-lives. Exponential decay calculation. Memory aid: '1/2ⁿ remaining; 1/32 = 1/2⁵ ⇒ 5 half-lives'. Radioactivity arithmetic frequently tested in competitive exams.
