Answer

$f = 310~Hz$

Work Step by Step

Let $L$ be the original length of the spring. We can find $k_1$: $\frac{7.0}{17} L~k_1 = k~L$ $k_1 = \frac{17}{7.0}k$ $k_1 = (\frac{17}{7.0})~(8600~N/m)$ $k_1 = 20,886~N/m$ We can find he mass of the block: $f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$ $f^2 = \frac{k}{4\pi^2 m}$ $m = \frac{k}{4\pi^2 f^2}$ $m = \frac{8600 N/m}{(4\pi^2) (200~Hz)^2}$ $m = 0.005446~kg$ We can find the oscillation frequency: $f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{k_1}{m}}$ $f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{20,886 ~N/m}{ 0.005446~kg}}$ $f = 310~Hz$
