(a) The spring stiffness constant of the spring is 18,392 N/m.
(b) The time the car was in contact with the spring before it bounces off in the opposite direction is 0.23 s.
<h3>Kinetic energy of the car</h3>
The kinetic energy of the car is calculated as follows;
K.E = ¹/₂mv²
K.E = ¹/₂ x 950 x 22²
K.E = 229,900 J
<h3>Stiffness constant of the spring</h3>
The stiffness constant of the spring is calculated as follows;
K.E = U = ¹/₂kx²
k = 2U/x²
k = (2 x 229,900)/(5)²
k = 18,392 N/m
<h3>Force exerted on the spring</h3>
F = kx
F = 18,392 x 5
F = 91,960 N
<h3>Time of impact</h3>
F = mv/t
t = mv/F
t = (950 x 22)/(91960)
t = 0.23 s

Kinetic energy than parked
Explanation:
Graph A matches description 4 because the car is coming back.
Graph B matches description 3 because the speed of the car is decreasing.
Graph C matches the description 2 because the car is traveling at a constant rate.
Graph D matches the description 1 because the car is stopped.

b) derived
Explanation:
Density 
is a characteristic property of substances and materials and is defined as the relationship between the mass 
and volume 
of a specific substance or material, as shown below:
This means density is inversely proportional to volume.
In addition, density is a derived unit, because is based on two basic units of the International Sistem of Units: Mass (kilograms) and Volume (cubic meters)
