$A$ simple pendulum of length $l$ has a brass bob attached at its lower end. Its period is $T$. $A$ steel bob of the same size,having density $x$ times that of brass,replaces the brass bob. Its length is then changed such that the period becomes $2T$. What is the new length?

  • A
    $4/x$
  • B
    $4l/x$
  • C
    $4l$
  • D
    $2l$
