Demolition ball swinging pendulum physics question please help?

In Figure 15-60, a 2800 kg demolition ball swings from the end of a crane. The length of the swinging segment of cable is 18 m.
(a) Find the period of the swinging, assuming that the system can be treated as a simple pendulum.
(b) Find the period if the mass of the ball is increased to 3300 kg, noting the relationship between the mass and the period.
