The length of a displaced pendulum ball which passes its lowest point twice every seconds is [g = 10ms-2]
0.25 m
0.45 m
0.58m
1.00m

Explanation

T = 2\(\pi\) \(\sqrt\frac{L}{g}\)
1 = 2 x 3.142\(\sqrt\frac{L}{10}\)
(since the pendulum pass its lowest point twice in a second, hence the frequency is 1 and period T= \(\frac{1}{F}\))
L= 0.25m
