    The angular frequency of the damped oscillator is given by, $\omega  = \sqrt {\left( {\frac{k}{m} - \frac{{{r^2}}}{{4{m^2}}}} \right)} $ where $k$ is the spring constant, $m$ is the mass of the oscillator and $r$ is the damping constant. If the ratio $\frac{{{r^2}}}{{mk}}$ is $8\%$, the change in time period compared to the undamped oscillator is approximately as follows
