(2) The brake mechanism used to reduce recoil in certain types of guns consists essentially of a piston which is attached to the barrel and may move in a fixed cylinder filled with oil. As the barrel
recoils with an initial velocity vo, the piston moves and oil is forced through orifices in the piston causing the piston and the barrel to decelerate at a rate proportional at a rate proportional to their
velocity, that is, a = -kv.
Express (a) v in terms of t,
(b) x in terms of t,
(c) v in terms of x.
Draw the corresponding motion curves.

Then under the constant applied force F = 340 N (in the direction shown in the image) acting on the ball, the spring is stretched to a new length 1.4 m. Determine the work done by the spring to the ball during this process. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. Negative sign must be included if the work done is negative. Your answer must include 1 place after the decimal point, and proper SI unit.
