We know for a simple pendulum,
$\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{T}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{\mathrm{~g}}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{~T} \propto \sqrt{l} \\
& \frac{\mathrm{~T}_1}{\mathrm{~T}_2}=\sqrt{\frac{l_1}{l_2}}
\end{aligned}$
When $l_2=4 l_1$,
$\frac{\mathrm{T}_1}{\mathrm{~T}_2}=\sqrt{\frac{l_1}{4 l_1}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{~T}_2=2 \mathrm{~T}_1$
$\therefore \quad$ Period is doubled when length is made four times
$\begin{aligned}
& \frac{\mathrm{T}_1}{2 \mathrm{~T}_1}=\sqrt{\frac{l_1}{l_2}} \\
& \frac{1}{2}=\sqrt{\frac{l_1}{l_2}} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{4}=\frac{l_1}{l_2} \Rightarrow l_2=4 l_1
\end{aligned}$
$\therefore \quad$ Period is doubled when length is made four times
