The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum of length L suspended from the roof of a vehicle which moves without friction down an inclined plane of inclination , is given by -
When a simple pendulum is suspended from the roof of a vehicle moving down an inclined plane without friction, the effective acceleration due to gravity experienced by the pendulum is g cos(θ), where θ is the angle of inclination. Therefore, the time period is T = 2π√(L/(g cos(θ))), where L is the length of the pendulum.
