A simple pendulum of length $l$ is made to oscillate with an amplitude of $45$ degrees. The acceleration due to gravity is $g$. Let $T_0=2 \pi \sqrt{l / g}$. The time period of oscillation of this pendulum will be
  • A$T_0$ irrespective of the amplitude
  • Bslightly less than $T_{0}$
  • Cslightly more than $T_0$
  • D
    dependent on whether it swings in a plane aligned with the north-south or east-west directions
