Answer:

The work done by the spring is 2.025 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass on the spring, m = 0.5 kg

spring constant, k = 5 N/m

extension of the spring, x = 0.9 m

The work done by the spring is calculated as;

[tex]W = \frac{1}{2} kx^2\\\\W = \frac{1}{2} \times 5 \times (0.9)^2\\\\W = 2.025 \ J[/tex]

Therefore, the work done by the spring is 2.025 J
