A spring is cut into two halves. What happens to its period of oscillation of a mass suspended from it, before cutting and after cutting ?

Explanation

To solve the problem of what happens to the period of oscillation of a mass suspended from a spring when the spring is cut into two halves, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Understand the formula for the period of oscillation
The period of oscillation \( T \) for a mass \( m \) attached to a spring with spring constant \( k \) is given by the formula:
\[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}} \]
