Problem

An oscillator has amplitude 0.08 m0.08\,\text{m} and is attached to a spring of force constant 25 N m−125\,\text{N\,m}^{-1}. The spring is replaced by another spring of force constant 100 N m−1100\,\text{N\,m}^{-1} while the amplitude is kept the same. What is the ratio of the new total mechanical energy to the original energy? a) 1616 b) 22 c) 44 d) 88
