Determine the maximum acceleration of the equipment

Reference no: EM13696223

Question: A piece of electronic equipment that is surrounded by packing material is dropped so that it hits the ground with a speed of 8 m/s. After impact the equipment experiences an acceleration of a = -kx, where k is a constant and x is the compression of the packing material. If the packing material experiences a maximum compression of 10 mm,

Question I: Determine the maximum acceleration of the equipment.

Please keep answer short and simple and please no copy and paste.
