$A$ pendulum is oscillating with frequency $n$ on the surface of the Earth. If it is taken to a depth $d = R/3$ below the surface of the Earth,what is the new frequency of oscillation? ($R$ is the radius of the Earth)

  • A
    $\sqrt{2/3} n$
  • B
    $\sqrt{3/2} n$
  • C
    $\sqrt{1/3} n$
  • D
