Answer 1

CONCEPT:

The time period of the simple pendulum is written as;

T = 2

Here we have " l " as the length, and g is the acceleration due to gravity and T is the time period.

CALCULATION:

Given: Length, l = 2 m, and time period, t = 2 s

Now, using the time period of the simple pendulum we have;

T = 2 ---(1)

Now, on putting the given values in equation (1) we have;

2 = 2

1 =

Now, on squaring both sides we have;

1 =

⇒ g = 2π² m/s²

Hence, option 4) is the correct answer.
