Assume that the earth is a solid sphere of uniform density and a tunnel is dug along its diameter throughout the earth. It is found that when a particle is released in this tunnel, it executes a simple harmonic motion. The mass of the particle is $100 g$. The time period of the motion of the particle will be (approximately) (take $g =10\,ms ^{-2}$, radius of earth $=6400\,km$ )
