Answer

$s(t)=1.32(1-e^{-0.606t})$

Work Step by Step

Since, $\dfrac{v_0 m}{k}=1.32$ $s(t)=\dfrac{v_0 m}{k}(1-e^{-(kt/m)} )....(1)$ With the given data, we have: $\dfrac{(0.80)(49.90)}{k}=1.32$ or, $ k \approx 30.2424$ Equation (1) becomes: $s(t)=\dfrac{v_0 m}{k}(1-e^{-kt/m} )\\=1.32(1-e^{-(30)t/49.90} ) \\=1.32(1-e^{-0.606t})$
