A mass m is hung from a spring with a spring constant

 

A mass m is hung from a spring with a spring constant of k. When set into motion, the mass oscillates with a period T = 2T k (1.59) Using another identical spring: (a) What would be the period of oscillation of the mass if it were taken to a planet with a gravitational field strength of 2g? (b) What would be the period of oscillation of the mass if it were hung from the two springs connected end-to-end (in series)? (c) What would be the period of oscillation of the mass if it were hung from the two springs connected side-by-side (in parallel)?
