Answer with Explanation:
We are given that


Spring constant,

a.Speed of ham before collision

Collision is inelastic
According to law of conservation of momentum



Kinetic energy of masses=Spring potential energy at maximum distance



Substitute the values

1 m=100 cm
b.Time period,

Answer:

Explanation:
Modulus of Elasticity perpendicular to the fibre,







Mechanical advantage is defined as

MA = 4
now we will have

as we need to pull up a box of weight 200 N
now by above formula we can find how much force it requires to pull up the box



so it requires 50 N force to pull the weight of 200 N
Neither because if driver 2 hadn't stopped, they both would've finished in the same amount of time.
