Explanation: Let Time period =T      Mass of the bob = m      Acceleration DUE to gravity = g     Length of string = L Let T \alpha m ^{a}g ^{b}L ^{c}      [T] \alpha [m] ^{a}[g] ^{b}[L] ^{c}      M^{0}L^{0}T^{1}=M^{a}L^{b}T^{-2B}L^{c}      M^{0}L^{0}T^{1}=M^{a}L^{b+c}T^{-2b}      ⇒a=0 ⇒ Time period of oscillation is independent of mass of the bob            -2b=1      ⇒b=-\frac{1}{2}            b+c = 0      -\frac{1}{2} + c =0      c=\frac{1}{2}       GIVING values to a,b and c in first equation      T \alpha m ^{0}g ^{- \frac{1}{2} }L ^{ \frac{1}{2} }      T \alpha \SQRT{ \frac{L}{g} } The real expression for Time period is      T =2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} } Therefore time period of oscillation depends only on gravity and length of the string. Not on mass of the bob.
