What happens to time period of a simple pendulum if a heavy body is attached to it instead of bob?

The period of a simple pendulum is independent of the mass of the bob. Keep in mind that the size of the bob does affect the length of the pendulum.

What happens to the period of a simple pendulum if the pendulum length is doubled?
The period increases - by a factor of sqrt(2).
What happens to the period of a pendulum if you increase its mass?
The mass has no significant effect on the period.
What effect does shortening the length of the pendulum have on the period of the pendulum?
A shorter pendulum has a shorter period. A longer pendulum has a longer period.
How would the time period of a simple pendulum clock be affected if it were on the moon instead of the earth?
The time period of a pendulum would increases it the pendulum were on the moon instead of the earth. The period of a simple pendulum is equal to 2*pi*√(L/g), where g is acceleration due to gravity. As gravity decreases, g decreases. Since the value of g would be smaller on the moon, the period of the pendulum would increase. The value of g on Earth is 9.8 m/s2, whereas the value of g on the moon is 1.624 m/s2. This makes the period of a pendulum on the moon about 2.47 times longer than the period would be on Earth.
How does the period of a pendulum change for length?
A longer pendulum has a longer period. A more massive pendulum has a longer period.
How much time it take if the pendulum is relesed at angle 1.75 degrees instead of 3.5 degrees?
The period of the pendulum is unchanged by the angle of swing. See link.
How does length effect the period of a pendulum?
A longer pendulum has a longer period.
How does height affect the period of a pendulum?
Height does not affect the period of a pendulum.
Which factor affects the period of the pendulum?
The period of a pendulum is affected by the angle created by the swing of the pendulum, the length of the attachment to the mass, and the weight of the mass on the end of the pendulum.
In simple pendulum if string is flexible then what is effect on time period?
multiply the length of the pendulum by 4, the period doubles. the period is proportional to the square of the pendulum length.
How can you increase the period of a pendulum?
Increase the length of the pendulum
How do the parameters of a simple pendulum affect the period of a pendulum?
The period increases as the square root of the length.
