Astrophysics is a term used to describe knowledge about the universe.
When we're working problems that involve a pendulum, we almost always IGNORE anything else besides gravity.
Anything else besides gravity that could influence the motion of a pendulum is something that we would eliminate if we could.
Those are air resistance, mass of the string, friction at the top suspension point, and the Coriolis force, due to the Earth's rotation, that tries to change the plane of the pendulum's swing.
This question is probably fishing for the answer "<em>friction</em>".
The amount of force required to stretch or compress the spring is known as the spring force. Its unit is Newton(N). Force is needed to stretch spring is 10.2 N.
<h3>What is spring force?</h3>
The force required to extend or compress a spring by some distance scales linearly with respect to that distance is known as the spring force. Its formula is
F = kx
The given data in the problem is;
F is the spring force =?
K is the spring constant= 8.5 N/m
x is the length by which spring got stretched = 1.2m

Hence the force is needed to stretch the spring is 10.2 N.

Almost true but not quite.
That would give you the negative of the actual acceleration.
It should be the other way around:
(final v) minus (initial v), then divide by time.
