The 12.1-in.spring is compressed to a 7.2-in. length, where it is released from rest and accelerates the sliding block A. The acceleration has an initial value of 210 ft/sec² and then decreases linearly with the x-movement of the block, reaching zero when the spring regains its original 12.1-in. length. Calculate the time t for the block to go (a) 2.45 in. and (b) 4.9 in. -7.2 A
