Figure 2 shows a block oscillating vertically between two identical springs, each with spring constant, k. A variable frequency vibrator causes the oscillation. The vibrator has constant amplitude. As the frequency changes, the amplitude of oscillation of the mass is measured, and the data is shown in Table 1.

For the block oscillating at maximum amplitude, determine the period of oscillation.

This question uses a figure or table from the paper — you'll see it when you practise.
