Electric Charges and Fields

One of the fundamental properties is the electromagnetic property. Charge cannot be destroyed by any process and this contributes formally to the law of charge conservation.

Question

A mass m is suspended from the ceiling of an elevator by a
spring of force constant k. When the elevator is at rest, the period
of the mass is T. Does the period increase, decrease, or remain the
same when the elevator (a) moves upward with constant speed or
(b) moves upward with constant acceleration?
