When a body of mass $8 \,kg$ is attached to a spring balance, the reading of the balance is $20 \,cm$. Instead of $8 \,kg$, if another body of mass $M$ is suspended from the spring balance and is made to oscillate vertically, the time period of oscillation is $\frac{\pi}{5} \,s$, then the value of $M$ is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,kg$)
