26.

A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.34 g soft rubber ball.The spring is originally compressed by 5.08 cm and has a forceconstant of 8.09 N/m. When the cannon is fired, the ball moves 15.1cm through the horizontal barrel of the cannon, and there is aconstant frictional force of 0.0318 N between the barrel and theball.

(a) With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel of thecannon?
m/s
(b) At what point does the ball have maximum speed?
cm (from its original position)
