A student hangs a weight on a newton meter
The energy now stored in the spring in the newton meter is 4.5 x 10^-2 J
The sequent then increases the weight on the newton meter by 2.0 N
Calculate the total extension of the spring
Spring constant = 400N/m
You can get the original weight by grabbing the initial extension from that energy and then using f=kx|\vec{f}|=k|\vec{x}|.

Then just use the additional weight and recalculate x|\vec{x}|.

May I know how you manage to write equations on TSR, kind sir? I’ve been trying to figure that out since ages.

I only found out recently but TSR has a LaTeX environment.

You start it with a (latex) and end with a (/latex),replace with [] SQUARE Parentheses.

It's odd that you need a / and not a \ to end it imo, but that's how it is.

Then it's just the standard latex way of writing equations (TSR has a page but I can't link cuz in bed.. Try to Google 'TSR LaTeX')
