A toy car launcher is equipped with a spring. When fully compressed, the spring is 1.2 cm long. When fully released, the spring is 2.7 cm long and launches a 0.16-kg toy car at the speed of 1.4 m/s. You have a hard-drawn wire (A = 1783, m = 0.19) whose diameter d = 1.2 mm with which you can wind into a spring. Determine the spring design (D, C, N₁, p) for the toy car launcher. Use N, = 1.25, ε = 0.15.

Question
A toy car launcher is equipped with a spring. When fully compressed, the spring is 1.2 cm long. When
fully released, the spring is 2.7 cm long and launches a 0.16-kg toy car at the speed of 1.4 m/s. You have a
hard-drawn wire (A = 1783, m = 0.19) whose diameter d = 1.2 mm with which you can wind into a spring.
Determine the spring design (D, C, N₁, p) for the toy car launcher. Use N₁ = 1.25, § = 0.15.
