The angular velocity of the Earth at present is $\omega$. With what angular velocity should it rotate so that the weight of a body at the equator appears to be zero (in $\omega$)? (Express the answer as a multiple of $\omega$)

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Acceleration due to earth's gravity decreases as you go 'up' or 'down' from earth's surface.
Statement $II$: Acceleration due to earth's gravity is same at a height '$h$' and depth '$d$' from earth's surface, if $h = d$.
In the light of above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
