Each of the two elastic rubber bands of the slingshot has an unstretched length of 200 mm. If they are pulled back to the position shown and released from rest, determine the maximum height the 25-g pellet will reach if it is fired vertically upward. Neglect the mass of the rubber bands and the change in elevation of the pellet while it is constrained by the rubber bands. Each rubber band has a stiffness k = 50 N/m.

 Each of the two elastic rubber bands of the slingshot has an unstretched length of 200 mm. If they are pulled back to the position shown and released from rest, determine the maximum height the 25-g pellet will reach if it is fired vertically upward. Neglect the mass of the rubber bands and the change in elevation of the pellet while it is constrained by the rubber bands. Each rubber band has a stiffness k = 50 N/m. 

5. Each of the two elastic rubber bands of the slingshot has an
unstretched length of 200 mm. If they are pulled back to the position
shown and released from rest, determine the maximum height the 25-g
pellet will reach if it is fired vertically upward. Neglect the mass of the
rubber bands and the change in elevation of the pellet while it is
constrained by the rubber bands. Each rubber band has a stiffness k = 50
