A0.15-kg steel ball is placed in a spring launcher. To launch the ball, the spring is initially compressed 0.03 m from its rest length and then released. The launched ball moves up the hilly frictionless track until it reaches a plateau 0.5 m above its initial height and continues to move with a constant speed of 2 m/s, as shown in (Figure 1). Determine the spring constant k of the spring launcher. k = N/m Submit Request Answer < Return to Assignment Provide Feedback Figure 1 of 1 2 m/s 0.5 m
