the time period of a pendulum is proportional to the square root of length.if the length of the pendulum is increased the time period of the pendulum also gets increased. we know the formula for the time period , from there we can prove that the time period of a pendulum is directly proportional to the effective length of the pendulum.
T=2 pi (l\g)^1\2
or, T isproportionalto (l/g)^1/2
or, T is proportional to square root of the effective length.

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.
How does length effect the period of a pendulum?
A longer pendulum has a longer period.
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 does the bob affects the period of a pendulum?
The period of a pendulum is totally un-affected by the mass of the bob.The time period of pendulum is given by the eqn.T=2*PIE*(l/g)1/2 ;l is the length of pendulum;g is the acceleration due to gravity.'l' is the length from the centre of suspension to the centre of gravity the bob.ie.the length of the pendulum depends on the centre of gravity of the bob,and hence the distribution of mass of the bob.
How can you increase the period of a pendulum?
Increase the length of the pendulum
