In an experiment to determine the period of a simple pendulum of length $1\, m$, it is attached to different spherical bobs of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ . The two spherical bobs have uniform mass distribution. If the relative difference in the periods, is found to be $5\times10^{-4}\, s$, the difference in radii, $\left| {{r_1} - {r_2}} \right|$ is best given by .... $cm$
