Answer:   C

X = Displacement of the spring

Hooke's law: It states that the applied force F is proportional to the  displacement of spring .

            F ∝ x

            Where, x = displacement of spring in meters

                         F = force, measured in Newtons

In another words The force F is equal to the constant K times the disparagement.

            F = k.x

            Where k is constant and it depends on elastic material.

            Spring has restorative force.  

If the spring moves in opposite direction then,

           F = - k.x

A negative sign indicates that the spring resists and force is to the left. The compression of the spring is greater than the restoring force.  

   Example: A mass 'm' stretches a spring at a displacement x.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of motion.

By definition we know that the position of a body is given by

x=x_0+v_0t+at^2

Where

x_0 = Initial position

v_0 = Initial velocity

a = Acceleration

t= time

And the velocity can be expressed as,

v_f = v_0 + at

Where,

v_f = Final velocity

For our case we have that there is neither initial position nor initial velocity, then

x= at^2

With our values we have x = 401.4m, t=4.945s, rearranging to find a,

a=\frac{x}{t^2}

a = \frac{ 401.4}{4.945^2}

a = 16.41m/s^2

Therefore the final velocity would be

v_f = v_0 + at

v_f = 0 + (16.41)(4.945)

v_f = 81.14m/s

Therefore the final velocity is 81.14m/s
