As discussed in

Time period of oscillation of simple pendulum -

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

- wherein

l = length of pendulum 

g = acceleration due to gravity.

 

 g changes from 9.8 ms^{-2} to 9.5ms^{-2}

length changes by 3 cm


Option 1)

3 m

This solution is incorrect.

Option 2)

0.3 m

This solution is incorrect.

Option 3)

0.3 cm

This solution is incorrect.

Option 4)

3 cm

This solution is correct.
