When the spring is extended by 44.5 cm - 34.0 cm = 10.5 cm = 0.105 m, it exerts a restoring force with magnitude R such that the net force on the mass is
∑ F = R - mg = 0
where mg = weight of the mass = (7.00 kg) g = 68.6 N.
It follows that R = 68.6 N, and by Hooke's law, the spring constant is k such that
k (0.105 m) = 68.6 N ⇒ k = (68.6 N) / (0.105 m) ≈ 653 N/m
Answer:
128.21 m
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Initial temperature (θ₁) = 4 °C
Final temperature (θ₂) = 43 °C
Change in length (ΔL) = 8.5 cm
Coefficient of linear expansion (α) = 17×10¯⁶ K¯¹)
Original length (L₁) =.?
The original length can be obtained as follow:
α = ΔL / L₁(θ₂ – θ₁)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / L₁(43 – 4)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / L₁(39)
17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / 39L₁
Cross multiply
17×10¯⁶ × 39L₁ = 8.5
6.63×10¯⁴ L₁ = 8.5
Divide both side by 6.63×10¯⁴
L₁ = 8.5 / 6.63×10¯⁴
L₁ = 12820.51 cm
Finally, we shall convert 12820.51 cm to metre (m). This can be obtained as follow:
100 cm = 1 m
Therefore,
12820.51 cm = 12820.51 cm × 1 m / 100 cm
12820.51 cm = 128.21 m
Thus, the original length of the wire is 128.21 m

c) 
Explanation:
<h3>a) Impulse delivered to the ball</h3>
According to the Impulse-Momentum theorem we have the following:
(1)
Where:
is the impulse
is the change in momentum
is the final momentum of the ball with mass 
and final velocity (to the right) 
is the initial momentum of the ball with initial velocity (to the left) 
So:

(3)
(4)
(5)
<h3>b) Time </h3>
This time can be calculated by the following equations, taking into account the ball undergoes a maximum compression of approximately 
:
(6)
(7)
Where:
is the acceleration
is the length the ball was compressed
is the time
Finding from (7):
(8)
(9)
(10)
Substituting (10) in (6):
(11)
Finding :
(12)
<h3>c) Force applied to the ball by the bat </h3>
According to Newton's second law of motion, the force 
is proportional to the variation of momentum in time 
:
(13)
(14)
Finally:
