Determine the smallest stiffness k which is required to shoot the ball a maximum distance of 31 in. up the smooth plane after the spring is pushed back 3 in . and the ball is released from rest. The four cords C and plate P keep the spring compressed 2 in. when no load is on the plate. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. k = Value Units
