According to Hooke's Law, the force required to hold the spring stretched x m beyond its natural length is given by
f(x) = kx,
where k is the spring constant.
Suppose that 6 J of work is needed to stretch a spring from its natural length of 24 cm to a length of 33 cm.
Find the exact value of k, in N/m.
k =
234.0
