The given elastic force equation
The Attempt at a Solution
I plugged in the numbers, with 0.2m for the change in s and 45 for a. Since I knew that work was equal to force * distance, I multiplied that result by another 0.2m. This got me 0.0144J, or 14.4mJ. Since I knew that the slingshot was stretching in the direction you pull, the work had to be positive.
Unfortunately, my answer is incorrect. :(
