Because the string is massless, the pendulum's moment of inertia comes from the:

ASupport alone
BAir alone
CBob alone
DString alone
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Bob alone
1. Moment of inertia sums mass times distance squared. 2. A massless string contributes nothing. 3. So only the bob counts. _Source: syllabus Physics Part II, Chapter 14, Oscillations._
