Question
A man measures the period of a simple pendulum inside a stationary lift ad finds it to be T second. If the lift accelerates upwards with an acceleration g/4, then the period of pendulum will be
- T
The correct answer is:
When lift is accelerated upwards with acceleration. 
Then effective acceleration due to gravity inside the lift
