$A$ rectangular block of mass $m$ and area of cross-section $A$ floats in a liquid of density $\rho$. If it is given a small vertical displacement from equilibrium,it undergoes simple harmonic motion with a time period $T$. Then:

  • A
    $T \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{m}}$
  • B
    $T \propto \sqrt{\rho}$
  • C
    $T \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{A}}$
  • D
    $T \propto \frac{1}{\rho}$
