/Q2 (20 pts): In a fire, a 72 kg man jumping from a window of the building lands in an elevated fire rescue net 15 m below the window. He momentarily stops when he has stretched the net down by 120 cm. Assuming that mechanical energy is conserved during this process and that the net functions like an ideal spring. Compute the rescuie net constant k.
