उत्तर

(d)\[\sqrt{6}\] times slower

The acceleration due to gravity at moon is g/6.
Time period of pendulum is given by,

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

Therefore, on moon, time period will be :

Tmoon = \[2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g_{moon}}} = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{( \frac{g}{6})}} = \sqrt{6}(2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}) = \sqrt{6}T\]
