A 0.30 kg0.30\,\text{kg} glider oscillates on a horizontal air track with a frequency of 3.0 Hz3.0\,\text{Hz}. An additional 0.20 kg0.20\,\text{kg} mass is gently placed on top of the glider so that the two move together without slipping. What is the new frequency of oscillation of the combined system? (Give your answer to two significant figures in hertz.)
