Relationship between time period (T) and length (L) of the string of a pendulum is given as, T = 2 π L g (where g is acceleration due to gravity on earth)
So,we can write, T = 2 π g L
Now,compare this with y=mx
So, Graph of T vs. L will be a straight line passing through origin,where slope = tan θ = 2 π g
