    The document contains two physics problems about rocket acceleration and spring extension. The first problem asks about the acceleration of a rocket between 10 and 30 seconds based on a speed-time graph, and asks to determine the acceleration and distance travelled at specific times. The second problem asks about Hooke's law, identifying the Hookean region on a spring extension graph, calculating the spring constant, and using it to find the new length when a load is applied.
