A body executes simple harmonic motion under the action of a force $F_1$ with a time period $(4/5)\, sec$. If the force is changed to $F_2$ it executes $SHM$ with time period $(3/5)\, sec$. If both the forces $F_1$ and $F_2$ act simultaneously in the same direction on the body, its time period (in $seconds$ ) is
