Given below are two statements.

Statement - 1: A heavy metal sphere is suspended by a spring. When pulled down a little and released, it oscillated up and down with a frequency f. If it is taken to the moon where the acceleration due to gravity is g/6, the frequency of oscillation is \(\sqrt{6 f} .\)

Statement - 2: The frequency of oscillation of the spring depends only on the mass of the sphere and spring constant.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. Statement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is True; Statement - 2 is a correct explanation for Statement - 1
  2. Statement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is True; Statement - 2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement - 1
