# A \( 3.42 \) \( \text{kg} \) stone hanging vertically from an ideal spring on the earth undergoes simple harmonic motion at a place where \( g = 9.80 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). If the force constant (spring constant) of the spring is \( 12 \) \( \text{N/m} \), find the period of oscillation of this setup on a planet where \( g = 1.60 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \).

A \( 3.42 \) \( \text{kg} \) stone hanging vertically from an ideal spring on the earth undergoes simple harmonic motion at a place where \( g = 9.80 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \). If the force constant (spring constant) of the spring is \( 12 \) \( \text{N/m} \), find the period of oscillation of this setup on a planet where \( g = 1.60 \) \( \text{m/s}^2 \).
