A body of mass, mmm is attached to the lower end of a spring whose upper end is fixed. The spring has negligible mass. When the mass mmm is slightly pulled down and released, it oscillates with a time period of 3s3s3s. When the mass mmm is increased by 1kg1\mathrm{kg}1kg, the time period of oscillations becomes 5s5s5s. The value of mmm in kg\mathrm{kg}kg is
