We don't know anything about what the bob is hung with. Is it a bamboo pole ? A steel rod ?

A chain or 1/4" aluminum cable ? Is it a thin massless thread ?

It makes a difference, because the arc-period of the whole assembly depends on the length

between its center of mass and the pivot.

Since we don't know anything about the support, we'll assume it to be massless.

Also, since we don't know anything about the bob itself, we'll assume it to be a point, with no

dimensions, hanging on the end of a massless string.

Now the period depends only on the length of the string, and is the same regardless of the

mass or weight of the bob. So, removing half of the Mercury from the bob has no effect on the period.

How is the the time period of a pendulum affected when the bob of the simple pendulum is filled with mercury?

Answer #1:Your question cannot be answered without knowing what the pendulum wasfilled with before it was filled with mercury.If it had nothing in it, before, then adding the mercury would increase theperiod time.If it had lead in it before, then adding the mercury would decrease the periodtime.================================Answer #2:The period of a simple pendulum doesn't depend on the weight (mass) of thebob. As long as the bob is much heavier than the string, and air resistance canbe ignored, nothing you do to the bob has any effect on the period.
