$\mathrm{T}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{mgl}}}=\sqrt{\frac{3 \mathrm{mr}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{mgr}}}$

or $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{3 r}{2 m}}$

or $2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{\mathrm{g}}}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{3 \mathrm{r}}{2 \mathrm{g}}}$

$\therefore \quad l=\frac{3}{2} \mathrm{r}=\frac{3}{2} \times 1=1.5 \mathrm{m}$
