\frac{\Delta T}{T} = \frac{1}{2}\alpha \Delta \theta = \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 10^{-6}\times (40-20)\times 86400 = 10.3 sec/day

 

Effect of temperature on time period of Simple Pendulum -

\frac{\Delta T}{T} = \frac{1}{2}\alpha \Delta \Theta       [Formula]

\Delta T     \rightarrow     change in Temp

T        \rightarrow     Time Period

\Delta \Theta    \rightarrow    change in Temp

\alpha         \rightarrow  Coefficient of Temp

 

- wherein

l_{0} =     Initial Length    

l =     Final Length of wire
