Assume that a tunnel is dug along a chord of the earth, at a perpendicular distance $( R / 2)$ from the earth's centre, where $'R'$ is the radius of the Earth. The wall of the tunnel is frictionless. If a particle is released in this tunnel, it will execute a simple harmonic motion with a time period
