The 12.2-in. spring is compressed to a 7.9-in. length, where it is released from rest and accelerates the sliding block A. The acceleration has an initial value of 170 ft/sec² and then decreases linearly with the x-movement of the block, reaching zero when the spring regains its original 12.2-in. length. Calculate the time t for the block to go (a) 2.15 in. and (b) 4.3 in. -7.9" -12.2" W 111x
