Well, I know that A is wrong since it is independent of the angle. The other answer choices have an angle component.kuruman said:

Review your trigonometry that lead you to that conclusion.
A pendulum on an inclined plane is a simple physical system that consists of a pendulum hanging from a string or rod attached to an inclined surface.
A pendulum on an inclined plane works by utilizing the force of gravity and the law of conservation of energy. As the pendulum moves along the inclined plane, it converts potential energy into kinetic energy and back again, creating a back-and-forth motion.
The motion of a pendulum on an inclined plane is affected by the angle of the incline, the length of the pendulum, and the force of gravity. These factors determine the speed, period, and amplitude of the pendulum's motion.
The angle of the incline has a direct impact on the motion of the pendulum. As the angle increases, the force of gravity acting on the pendulum increases, resulting in a higher speed and shorter period of motion. As the angle decreases, the opposite occurs.
Pendulums on inclined planes have various practical uses, such as in clocks and metronomes to keep time, in earthquake seismometers to measure ground vibrations, and in amusement park rides. They are also commonly used in physics experiments to demonstrate principles of energy and motion.
