A mass attached to a spring is displaced from its equilibrium position by 5cm and released. The system then oscillates in simple harmonic motion with a period of 1s. If that same mass–spring system is displaced from equilibrium by 10cm instead, what will its period be in this case?

T = 2 pi (m/k)^1/2

does not depend on displacement
depends on mass and spring constant which are same in both cases
