In both figures shown below, there is a hole along the diameter of the Earth. In the first figure, a particle is released from point $A$ and it oscillates with a time period $T_1$. In the second figure, the same particle is released from point $B$ and it oscillates with a time period $T_2$. Then, [$O$ is the centre of the Earth]

  • A
    $T_1 > T_2$
  • B
    $T_1 < T_2$
  • C
    $T_1 = 2T_2$
  • D
    $T_1 = T_2$

One end of a $V$-tube containing mercury is connected to a suction pump and the other end to the atmosphere. The two arms of the tube are inclined to the horizontal at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ each. $A$ small pressure difference is created between the two columns when the suction pump is removed. Will the column of mercury in the $V$-tube execute simple harmonic motion? Neglect capillary and viscous forces. Find the time period of oscillation.

$A$ uniform rod of length $L$ and mass $M$ is pivoted at the centre. Its two ends are attached to two springs of equal spring constants $k$. The springs are fixed to rigid supports as shown in the figure,and the rod is free to oscillate in the horizontal plane. The rod is gently pushed through a small angle $\theta$ in one direction and released. The frequency of oscillation is
