Two identical balls $A$ and $B$,each of mass $0.1 \ kg$,are attached to two identical massless springs. The spring-mass system is constrained to move inside a rigid smooth pipe bent in the form of a circle as shown in the figure. The pipe is fixed in a horizontal plane. The centers of the balls can move in a circle of radius $0.06 \ m$. Each spring has a natural length of $0.06\pi \ m$ and a force constant of $0.1 \ N/m$. Initially,both balls are displaced by an angle $\theta = \pi/6$ radian with respect to the diameter $PQ$ of the circle and released from rest. The frequency of oscillation of the ball $B$ is:

  • A
    $\pi \ Hz$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{\pi} \ Hz$
  • C
    $2\pi \ Hz$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2\pi} \ Hz$
