A pendulum of length 1.0 meter is set into motion. At point A on the pendulum, it knocks into a mass on a spring and sets the mass in motion. Assuming both the pendulum and the spring have the same period, what is the ratio of   mass  /  spring constant  (mass divided by spring constant) ? 

(a) 0.10 

(b) 0.56 

(c) 10.43

(d) 1.92
