A custom-designed spring has a restoring force F(x) = − (ax + Bx²) where x is the stretch from its equilibrium length, a = 3.4 N/m, and 6 = 4 N/m². A 4-kg gizmo is attached to this spring and stretched 1.7 m over a frictionless, horizontal surface. If the gizmo is released from rest, how fast will it be moving when it passes as its equilibrium position? V= Record your numerical answer below, assuming three significant figures.
