Assuming Earth to be a uniform solid sphere, show that if a straight hole were drilled from pole to pole, a particle dropped into the hole would execute simple harmonic motion. Show also that the period of this oscillation depends only on the density of Earth and is independent of the size. What is the period of hours?
