i.e. both the pendulums oscillate with the same frequency 0 . So, spring

In your lab, this is the 2nd part of the coupled pendulum experiment. Since expansion
or compression in the spring is function of its position , therefore, in this part , with the
increasing the position from top, c will increase. Hence you will get y mx kind of graph.
Please not , in the lab, you have to consider moment of inertia, because it is a practical system.
