Answer:
The period would decrease by sqrt(2)
Explanation:
The restoring force is given by,
F = -kx
According to Newton's second law of motion,
ma = -kx
ma + kx = 0
The time period is given by,
T =
Where  is the angular velocity and it is given by,
 is the angular velocity and it is given by,
 =
 = 
Now if the spring constant is doubled then,

Thus,
 =
 =
 


Thus, The period would decrease by sqrt(2).
Hence, option D is correct.

The distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval is 0.28 m.
<h3>
Position of the particle at time, t = 0</h3>
The position of the particle at the given time is calculated as follows;
x = 2 sin2(t)
y = 2 cos2(t)
x(0) = 2 sin2(0) = 0
y(0) = 2 cos2(0) = 2(1) = 2
<h3>
Position of the particle at time, t = 4</h3>
x = 2 sin2(t)
y = 2 cos2(t)
x(4) = 2 sin2(4) = 0.28
y(4) = 2 cos2(4) = 2(1) = 1.98
<h3>Distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval</h3>
d = √[(x₄ - x₀)² + (y₄ - y₀)²]
d =  √[(0.28 - 0)² + (1.98 - 2)²]
d = 0.28 m
Thus, the distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval is 0.28 m.
