A simple pendulum of time period 1s and length l is hung from a fixed support at O, such that the bob is at a distance H vertically above A on the ground (Fig. ). The amplitude is o θ . The string snaps at` θ = θ_ 0 /2`. Find the time taken by the bob to hit the ground. Also find distance from A where bob hits the ground. Assume θ
0 to be small so that ` sinθ_0 and cos θ_0 =1`
