The angular frequency of the damped oscillator is given by ω=k/mr2/4m2\omega = \sqrt{k/m - r^2/4m^2}, where kk is the spring constant, mm is the mass of the oscillator and rr is the damping constant. If the ratio r2/mkr^2/mk is 8%8\%, the change in time period compared to the undamped oscillator is approximately as follows:
