A mass $0.9\,kg$, attached to a horizontal spring, executes $SHM$ with an amplitude $A _{1}$. When this mass passes through its mean position, then a smaller mass of $124\,g$ is placed over it and both masses move together with amplitude $A _{2}$. If the ratio $\frac{ A _{1}}{ A _{2}}$ is $\frac{\alpha}{\alpha-1}$, then the value of $\alpha$ will be$......$
