Consider a Hollow Sphere filled with water performing Simple Harmonic Motion with Time period T 1 T_{1} . Now all the water is removed . So It starts oscillating with time period T 2 T_{2} .Compare T 1 T_{1} & T 2 T_{2} .


Inspiration

T 1 T_{1} > T 2 T_{2} T 1 T_{1} = T 2 T_{2} T 1 T_{1} < T 2 T_{2}

As Time period oscillation of rigid body is 2 π × l g 2 \pi \times\sqrt {\dfrac {l}{g}}

where l = k 2 l c o m + l c o m l=\frac{k^{2}}{l_{com}}+l_{com} where k k is radius of gyration and l c o m l_{com} represents distance of C O M COM from point of suspension . And M k 2 = I c o m Mk^{2}=I_{com} where is M M is mass of rigid body and I c o m I_{com} is moment of inertia about axis passing through C O M COM .

Initially Sphere can be considered as uniform solid sphere whose I c o m = 2 5 M R 2 I_{com}=\frac{2}{5}MR^{2} ( R R is radius of sphere)

Finally it is hollow sphere whose I c o m = 2 3 M R 2 I_{com}=\frac{2}{3}MR^{2}

Clearly l l is more for hollow sphere So time period of hollow sphere is more than solid sphere

i.e T 1 T_{1} < T 2 T_{2} .

So people might think that time period will remain same but which is approximately but exactly it will not same.

Could u explain how can we derive formula for value of l

The mass of the bob would change after removing water so how can you take it as M again?

Actually the time period of oscillation doesn't depend upon mass of bob.

I know I was just saying u should change the notation. Anyways good solution
