Constant A spring loaded gun (with a spring constant, k) is compressed. It launches a ball of mass, m, directly upwards. At height, h, the ball is recorded as having a velocity of v. V h Part A The spring in the gun was compressed by a length, x, given by: 2mgh x = k x = m(v²+2gh) x = k 2m(v²+gh) x =
