Answer:
Speed will be equal to 1.40 m/sec
Explanation:
Mass of the rubber ball m = 5.24 kg = 0.00524 kg
Spring is compressed by 5.01 cm
So x = 5.01 cm = 0.0501 m
Spring constant k = 8.08 N/m
Frictional force f = 0.031 N
Distance moved by ball d = 15.8 cm = 0.158 m
Energy gained by spring

Energy lost due to friction

So remained energy to move the ball = 0.0101 - 0.0048 = 0.0052 J
This energy will be kinetic energy


v = 1.40 m/sec
Heat = change in internal energy + Work done The internal energy of a system = heat added and mechanical work done by the system, i.e. U = Q + W rearranging the formula above, will give us: Q = deltaU + W
Q = U - W = 604 kJ - 43.0 kJ = 561,000 J would be the answer.
