Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(T =2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ m }{ k }}=1\)

\(T ^{\prime}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ m +3}{ k }}=2\)

\(\frac{ T }{ T ^{\prime}}=\sqrt{\frac{ m }{ m +3}}=\frac{1}{2}\)

\(\Rightarrow \frac{ m }{ m +3}=\frac{1}{4}\)

\(m =1\)
