$A$ spring has a certain mass suspended from it and its period of vertical oscillations is $T_1$. The spring is now cut into two equal halves and the same mass is suspended from one of the halves. The period of vertical oscillations is now $T_2$. The ratio of $T_2 / T_1$ is

  • A
    $1: 2$
  • B
    $1: \sqrt{2}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2}: 1$
  • D
    $2: 1$
