Oscillations · Oscillating systems

The frequency of oscillation of a mass mm suspended by spring is ν1\nu_1. If the length of the spring is cut to half, the same mass oscillates with frequency ν2\nu_2. The value of ν2ν1\dfrac{\nu_2}{\nu_1} is .
  1. (1)1
  2. (2)2
  3. (3)2\sqrt2
  4. (4)3\sqrt3
We corrected a printing error in the original paper

Source printed the frequencies with a Latin vv (v1v_1, v2v_2) for ν\nu.
