What is the natural frequency of oscillation?

Two pressure sensors are located at the seafloor: one is 100 m and the other is 500 m off the coastline.

A section of uniform pipe is bent into an upright U shape and partially filled with water, which can then oscillate back and forth in simple harmonic motion. The inner radius of the pipe is r = 0.024 m. The radius of curvature of the curved part of the U is R = 0.23 m. When the water is not oscillating, the depth of the water in the straight sections is d = 0.37 m.
