Explanation / Answer

Block's acceleration = a = 4.93 m/s / 0.645s

a = 7.643 m/s2

Net accelerating force on the block is
fa = m*a

fa = 14.1*7.643 N

fa = 107.772 N

ff = 0.0891m * k

total stretching force is
fa + ff = k*x

107.772 + 0.0891*k = 0.186*k
k = 107.772 / (0.186 - 0.0891) N/m

k = 1112.2 N/m

k = 1.11 x 103 N/m

Part b)

ff = k*m*g

ff = 0.0891*1786 N

ff = 99.09N

k = 89.3 / (14.1*9.8)

k = 0.717
