$A$ mass $m$ is suspended by means of two coiled springs which have the same length in the unstretched condition,as shown in the figure. Their force constants are $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively. When set into vertical vibrations,the period will be:

  • A
    $2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k_1 k_2}}$
  • B
    $2\pi \sqrt{m \frac{k_1}{k_2}}$
  • C
    $2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k_1 - k_2}}$
  • D
    $2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k_1 + k_2}}$
