The work to stretch a spring from its rest position is
(1/2) (spring constant) (distance of the stretch)²
E = 1/2 k x² .
You said it takes 1700 joules to stretch the spring 3 meters from its rest position, so we can write
1700 joules = 1/2 k (3m)²
1 joule = 1 newton-meter
1700 N-m = 1/2 k (3m)²
Multiply each side by 2: 3400 N-m = k · 9m²
Divide each side by 9m² k = 3400 N-m / 9m²
= (377 and 7/9) newton per meter
Answer:
gravitational field strength (g) is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
total distance covered = (4km + 2km + 1km) = 7 km
time to cover the distance = (32min + 22min + 16min) = 70 min
Average speed = (7 km) / (70 min)
Average speed = 0.1 km/minute
