$A$ simple pendulum is placed inside a lift, which is moving with a uniform acceleration. If the time periods of the pendulum while the lift is moving upwards and downwards are in the ratio $1: 2$, then the acceleration of the lift is (Acceleration due to gravity, $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,ms^{-2}$)
