$T =2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ L }{ g }}, \quad g ^{\prime}=\frac{ GM }{9 R ^{2}}=\frac{ g }{9}=\frac{\pi^{2}}{9}$

$2=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ L }{\pi^{2}} \times 9}$

$1=\pi \sqrt{ L } \times \frac{3}{\pi} \Rightarrow L =\frac{1}{9}\,m$

    $(A)$ The object moves on the $\mathrm{x}$-axis under a conservative force in such a way that its "speed" and "position" satisfy $v=c_1 \sqrt{c_2-x^2}$, where $\mathrm{c}_1$ and $\mathrm{c}_2$ are positive constants. $(p)$ The object executes a simple harmonic motion.
    $(B)$ The object moves on the $\mathrm{x}$-axis in such a way that its velocity and its displacement from the origin satisfy $\mathrm{v}=-\mathrm{kx}$, where $\mathrm{k}$ is a positive constant. $(q)$ The object does not change its direction.
    $(C)$ The object is attached to one end of a massless spring of a given spring constant. The other end of the spring is attached to the ceiling of an elevator. Initially everything is at rest. The elevator starts going upwards with a constant acceleration a. The motion of the object is observed from the elevator during the period it maintains this acceleration. $(r)$ The kinetic energy of the object keeps on decreasing.
    $(D)$ The object is projected from the earth's surface vertically upwards with a speed $2 \sqrt{\mathrm{GM}_e / R_e}$, where, $M_e$ is the mass of the earth and $R_e$ is the radius of the earth. Neglect forces from objects other than the earth. $(s)$ The object can change its direction only once.
