$A$ pendulum is oscillating with frequency $n$ on the surface of the Earth. If it is taken to a depth $d = \frac{R}{4}$ below the surface of the Earth,what is the new frequency of oscillation? ($R =$ radius of the Earth)

  • A
    $\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} n$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} n$
  • C
    $\frac{2 n}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • D
    $\frac{n}{4}$
