At poles gravity increases and so the time period of the time pendulum increases as T = 2pi( l/g)1/2

please approve my answer if you liked it!!

Time period of simple pendulum decreases..As Radius is decresing, g increases.And T is inversely proportional to squareroot of g..So more g, less the T value.

when a pendulum is taken from pole to equator then its time period increases because equatorial radius is greater than polar radius.as time period is in inverse relation to square root of “g”.
