(d) For the given figure $f = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{{k_{eq}}}}{m}} = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{{2k}}{m}} $…..(i)
If one spring is removed, then $k_eq = k$ and
$f' = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}\sqrt {\frac{k}{m}} $ ….(ii)
From equation (i) and (ii),

$\frac{f}{{f'}} = \sqrt 2 $

==> $f' = \frac{f}{{\sqrt 2 }}$
