Answer:
A. The period of an oscillation does not depend upon amplitude.
Explanation:
The period of a spring-mass system is:
T = 1/f = 2π√(m/k)
where f is the frequency, m is the mass, and k is the spring constant.
The answer isn't B. There are no frictionless systems in the real world.
The answer isn't C or D. As shown, the frequency is a function of both the mass and the spring constant.
The answer isn't E. Turning motion into heat is not an advantage for a clock.
The correct answer is A. The period of the system does not depend on the amplitude.
