Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
C

Let be the length of block immersed in liquid as shown in the figure. When the block is floating,

If the block is given vertical displacement then the effective restoring force is

Restoring force . As this is directed towards its equilibrium position of block, so if the block is left free, it will execute simple harmonic motion.

Here inertia factor mass of block

Spring factor

Time period
