Answer:
3. 0.5 sec.
Explanation:
A bullet fired horizontally follows a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:
- A horizontal motion with constant speed
- A vertical motion with constant acceleration, g = 9.8 m/s^2, towards the ground
The time taken for the bullet to reach the ground can be calculated just by considering the vertical motion:

where y is the vertical position at time t, h is the initial height, and
is the initial vertical velocity of the bullet.
Since the bullet is fired horizontally,
. So the equation becomes

And the time that the bullet takes to reach the ground can be found by requiring y=0 and solving for t:

As we can see, in this equation there is no dependance on the initial speed of the bullet: therefore, if the bullet is fired still horizontally but with a different speed, it will still take the same time (0.5 s) to reach the ground.

Answer:
6.22 N/m
Explanation:
From Hooke's law we deduce that F=kx where F is the applied force and k is the spring constant while x is the extension or compression of the spring. Making k the subject of the above formula then

We also know that the force F is equal to mg where m is the mass of an object and g is acceleration due to gravity hence substituting F with mg we get that

Substituting m with 425 g which is equivalent to 0.425 kg and g with 9.81 then 0.67 for x we get that

Therefore, the spring constant is approximately 6.22 N/m
