$\frac{1}{k_{e q}}=\frac{1}{k_{1}}+\frac{1}{k_{2}}$

$\frac{1}{k_{e q}}=\frac{1}{k}+\frac{1}{k} \Rightarrow k_{e q}=\frac{k}{2}$

$k^{\prime}=\frac{k}{2}$

$T =2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ M }{ k }} \quad T ^{\prime}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ M }{ k ^{\prime}}}$

$\Rightarrow T ^{\prime}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{ M }{ k }} \times \sqrt{2}$

$T^{\prime}=\sqrt{2} T$
