Answer:
20.42 N/m
Explanation:
From hook's law,
F = ke ......................... Equation 1
Where F = Force applied to the spring., k = spring constant, e = extension.
Make k the subject of the equation,
k = F/e ................. Equation 2
Note: The force on the spring is equal to the weight of the mass hung on it.
F = W = mg.
k = mg/e................ Equation 3
Given: m = 250 g = 0.25 kg, e = 37-25 = 12 cm = 0.12 m.
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute into equation 3
k = (0.25×9.8)/0.12
k = 20.42 N/m.
Hence the spring constant = 20.42 N/m

Explanation:
These are just basic definitions. Let me know if you need further clarification.
Answer:

Explanation:
We need only to apply the definition of acceleration, which is:

In our case the final velocity is
, the initial velocity is
since it departs from rest, the final time is
and the initial time we are considering is 
So for our values we have:
