Answer:
The approximate spring constant is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the person is 
The dip of the car is 
Generally according to hooks law

here the force F is the weight of the person which is mathematically represented as

=> 
=> 
=> 
=> 
215
I am assuming that those are the width and length. So to find area all you have to do is multiply the two because lw = a. 12 1/2*17 1/5 = 215
25/2*86/5 = 2150/10 = 215
Scale: (soft 1-->6 hardest)
<span>1=Talc 2=Gypsum 3=Calcite 4=Fluorite 5=Apatite 6=Orthoclase
</span>Mineral #1 can only scratch two other minerals therefore it must have a hardness level of 2+1=3 which is Calcite. (scratches talc, gypsum)
Mineral #2 can scratch four other minerals therefore it must have a hardness level of 4+1=5 which is Apatite. (scratches all but Apatite, Orthoclase)
Looking through the possible conclusions.. It looks like answer is D.
Whenever lightning strikes it separates the air where it goes. This air then rushes back together making a loud noise when it connects, creating thunder.
