Oscillation of a spring and mass on an asteroid

[bobred]

Homework Statement

Find the period of oscillation T of the spring and mass on the asteroid

Homework Equations

$$T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$$

The Attempt at a Solution

I have found the value for T but was wondering if T depends on the bodies gravity? Is the above equation only applicable to Earth?

 

[Stonebridge]

The period only depends on m and k. So it would be the same on the asteroid.
It's pendulums that have a period depending on the value of g.

I actually went and solved the equation of motion which shows that gravity does not affect the period.

Thanks
