Answer:

The mass of the fish is 18.1 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

weight of the fish, F = 108 N

extension of the spring by the given weight, x = 14 cm = 0.14 m

First, determine the elastic constant of the spring by applying Hook's law;

F = kx

where;

k is the spring constant

k = F/x

k = 108 / 0.14

k = 771.43 N/m

When the spring is stretched to 23cm, the mass of the fish is calculated as follows;

F = mg = Kx\\\\m = \frac{Kx}{g} \\\\m = \frac{771.43\times 0.23}{9.8} \\\\m = 18.1 \ kg

Therefore, the mass of the fish is 18.1 kg.

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

This is the step by step explanation to the above question:

v_i = v [ f_L *(v - v_b) - f_s*(v + v_b)] / [f_L * (v - v_b) + f_s*(v +v_b)]

= v * (83.1 * (v-4.3) - 80.7 ( v+4.3))/ [83.1 *(v - 4.3) + 80.7*(v + 4.3)]

v = 344 m/s

vi = 344 * ( 83.1* (344-4.3) - 80.7*(344+4.3) ) / (83.1 *(344 - 4.3) + 80.7*(344 + 4.3))

= 0.74 m/s
