A simple pendulum fixed in a car has a time period of 4 seconds when the car is moving uniformly on a horizontal road. When the accelerator is pressed, the time period changes to 3.99 seconds. Making an approximate analysis, find the acceleration of the car.

Hi Princy Meshram, We know from Period equation that the period of oscillation of a simple pendulum is T = 2π√ L/g.
Where,
    T is the period in seconds (s)
    π is the Greek letter pi and is approximately 3.14
    √ is the square root of what is included in the parentheses
    L is the length of the rod or wire in meters or feet
    g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s² or 32 ft/s² on Earth)
