A5-kilogram object initially slides with speed vo in a


A 5-kilogram object initially slides with speed vo in a hollowfrictionless pipe. The end of the pipe contains two springs. one nested inside the other, as shown above.The object makes contact with the inner spring at point A, moves 0.1 meter to make contact with the outer spring atpoint B, and then moves an additional 0.05 meter before coming to rest at point C. The graph shows the magnitude ofthe force exerted on the object by the springs as a function of the objects distance from point A.

a. Calculate the spring constant for the inner spring.

b. Calculate the decrees in kinetic energy of the object as itmoves from point A to point B.

c. Calculate the additional decrease in kinetic energy of theobject as it moves from point B to point C.

d. Calculate the initial speed vo of the object

e. Calculate the spring constant of the outer spring.
