Since the sizes of metal bob and wooden bob are equal, the position of centre of mass does not
change. Therefore the length of the pendulum remains same so, time period remains constant.

time period of the bob is doesn’t depends upon the size of the bob.so if the bob is metal or wood for anything the center of the mass is equal.
