$A$ cylindrical piston of mass $M$ slides smoothly inside a long cylinder closed at one end,enclosing a certain mass of gas. The cylinder is kept with its axis horizontal. If the piston is disturbed from its equilibrium position,it oscillates simple harmonically. The period of oscillation will be

  • A
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{{Mh}}{{PA}}} $
  • B
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{{MA}}{{Ph}}} $
  • C
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{M}{{PAh}}} $
  • D
    $T = 2\pi \sqrt {MPhA} $
