If $R$ is the radius of the earth and the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth is $g = \pi^2 \ m/s^2$,then the length of the second's pendulum at a height $h = 2R$ from the surface of the earth will be:

  • A
    $\frac{2}{9} \ m$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{9} \ m$
  • C
    $\frac{4}{9} \ m$
  • D
    $\frac{8}{9} \ m$
