When the initial angular amplitude of a simple pendulum is increased from 3∘3^{\circ} to 20∘20^{\circ}, how does its time period compare with the value obtained from T=2πL/gT = 2\pi\sqrt{L/g}? (a) It remains practically the same. (b) It increases by about 10%10\%. (c) It becomes slightly longer. (d) It becomes slightly shorter.
