(C) Given mass $m = 2\,kg$,initial velocity $u = 4\,ms^{-1}$ at $x = 0.5\,m$.The retarding force is $F = -kx = -12x$.Using Newton's second law,$F = ma$,so $a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{-12x}{2} = -6x$.We know $a = v \frac{dv}{dx}$,so $v \frac{dv}{dx} = -6x$.Integrating both sides: $\int_{4}^{v} v \, dv = \int_{0.5}^{1.5} -6x \, dx$.$\left[ \frac{v^2}{2} \right]_{4}^{v} = -6 \left[ \frac{x^2}{2} \right]_{0.5}^{1.5}$.$\frac{v^2 - 16}{2} = -3 [ (1.5)^2 - (0.5)^2 ]$.$\frac{v^2 - 16}{2} = -3 [ 2.25 - 0.25 ] = -3 [ 2 ] = -6$.$v^2 - 16 = -12$.$v^2 = 4$,which gives $v = 2\,ms^{-1}$.
