$A$ rubber band catapult has an initial length of $2 \, cm$ and a cross-sectional area of $5 \, mm^2$. It is stretched by an additional $2 \, cm$ and then released to project a stone of mass $20 \, g$. The velocity of the projected stone is (Young's modulus of rubber $= 5 \times 10^8 \, N/m^2$) (in $ \, m/s$)
