A mass $M$ is suspended from a spring of negligible mass. The spring is pulled a little and then released so that the mass executes simple harmonic oscillations with a time period $T$. If the mass is increased by m then the time period becomes $\left( {\frac{5}{4}T} \right)$. The ratio of $\frac{m}{{M}}$ is

  • A

    $ \frac{9}{16}$

  • B

    $ \frac{25}{16}$

  • C

    $ \frac{4}{5}$

  • D

    $ \frac{5}{4}$
