The Electromagnetic spectrum.
Answer:
If x₁=12 cm then k=1.7985 N/m
If x₂=15 cm then k=1.4388 N/m
Explanation:
Hanging mass= 22 g=0.022 kg
Acceleration due to gravity g=9.81 m/s²
If x₁=displacement= 12 cm=0.12 m
k= spring constant


∴k = 1.7985 N/m
If x₂=15 cm=0.15 m
Force of the hanging mass is same however the spring constant will change

∴k = 1.4388 N/m
As the mass is not changing the spring constant has to change. That means that here there are two spring one with k=1.7985 N/m and the other with k= 1.4388 N/m
The deceleration experienced by the gymnast is the 9 times of the acceleration due to gravity.
Now from Newton`s first law, the net force on gymnast,

Here, W is the weight of the gymnast and a is the acceleration experienced by the gymnast (
acceleration due to gravity)
Therefore,
OR 
Given
and
Substituting these values in above formula and calculate the force exerted by the gymnast,


Its very dense. Hey, are you homeschooled?
