$A$ particle at the end of a spring executes simple harmonic motion with a period $t_1$,while the corresponding period for another spring is $t_2$. If the period of oscillation with the two springs in series is $T$,then

  • A
    $T = t_1 + t_2$
  • B
    $T^2 = t_1^2 + t_2^2$
  • C
    $T^{-1} = t_1^{-1} + t_2^{-1}$
  • D
    $T^{-2} = t_1^{-2} + t_2^{-2}$
